OMGYG! Just saw this film the other night and it is one of the best works of cinematic art I've seen in a long, long time. A Casa de Alice (Alice's House) was shot like a documentary, and it is so very real. The viewer comes into the middle of this Brazilian family's life, which is a bit dysfunctional if not chaotic. I actually felt somewhat voyeuristic. Then the movie ends, leaving so much unresolved. It's so intimate and so real, I was convinced the characters weren't actors. Oh, and don't get me started on those hot, dreamy Brazilian guys ... About the only thing that put me off was a little bit of underdeveloped foreshadowing toward the end. As a whole, this is one brilliant film with a ton of heart and soul.Friday, February 29, 2008
