Talk:Bye Bye Brasil
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is very off and in its minor detail confuses much of the plotline. I just viewed this film for a Latin American Film History class and several facts in this article are completely fabricated.
For instance, the "man" in the first paragraph (played by José Wilker) is not a singing guitarist, but rather a magician, referring to himself as "Lorde Cigano".
The second paragraph is vaguely true except for a very bogus last line about "winning the lottery". This sort of happening does not save them, and from what are they saved in the first place? If it's going to spoil the plot at all, this article should at least do the film justice. Lorde Cigano and Salomé are "saved" by pimping and becoming involved in a smuggling ring. Compounding the problem is the fact that important actors are left out...
...Except when the "famous television entertainer", played by Fábio Júnior, is mistaken for José Wilker's character, Lorde Cigano. Cigano and Salomé (Betty Faria) co-own the lavish recreational vehicle spoken of in the final paragraph.
Overall the entire article is rubbish and could very well have been pulled out of a hat.
