Leave your thoughts about Black Orpheus.
| Independent (UK)Anthony QuinnIt's the music, ecstatic, delirious, overwhelming, that is the star of the show: the bossa nova has never had a setting like this. |
| Parallax ViewSean AxmakerThe vibrant color of the costumes and settings and the energetic beat of the music and dance creates an intoxicating atmosphere... |
| Cinema em CenaPablo VillaçaO belo conceito de Vinícius e a magnífica música de Tom Jobim não conseguem salvar este filme que, apesar de esteticamente impecável (ou talvez por isso), confunde alegoria e caricatura. |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyVivid and colorful, this prize-winning arthouse hit, a tragic love story set against the carnival, served as a seductive introduction to Latin American culture and music. |
| The SpectatorIsabel QuiglyThis is an attractive boy-meets-girl story and no more, with everything full of charm, but slow, deathly slow and repetitive till the charm itself grows monotonous. |
| Times (UK)Kate MuirIn terms of sheer sun-kissed pulchritude, Black Orpheus was like nothing seen before when it exploded with its bossa nova soundtrack in 1959, winning the Palme d'Or at Cannes and the Oscar for foreign film. |
| Film ThreatPhil HallDated, to put it mildly. But still colorful, with charming lead performances and that wonderful score. |
| Nick's Flick PicksNick DavisA surface pleasure, mostly, but what a surface! Exquisitely colorful and wonderfully rhythmic. |
| Time OutTrevor JohnstonA mixed bag then, but the highlights are memorable. |
| Q Network Film DeskJames Kendrickits romanticized perspective makes it all seem in hindsight a bit shallow and facile |
