O Coronel e o Lobisomem

Its most obvious that Claudio Carvalho&apos;s comments about the movie lacks the basic foundation about the original story in which the movie is based and the perks in speech and writing of the author of that story. José Cândido de Carvalho, a Brazilian writer, was the author of the book that inspired this movie. His most distinguished feature was the way he toys with the Portuguese language in his texts. The movies translates that in a superb manner, showcasing not only a very good script that maintains the distinguished writing of Cândido de Carvalho, but also show us astonishing acting skills of the main actors and actress. This movie is one of those movies that simply can&apos;t be translated without loosing much of its substance. Much of its essence come from the way the Portuguese language is used, that&apos;s why we have big monologues, and voice overs. Is less an action movie or a drama, and more of a comedy, a very sophisticated comedy I might add. A very good movie celebrating the Portuguese language!
