桑巴的秘密

巴西人对旋律的感觉真是与生俱来的，这部关于一群生活在里约北区的桑巴老乐手的纪录片，音乐超赞。。。


　　“The Mystery of Samba”, a feature length documentary movie, Lula Buarque de Hollanda and Carolina Jabor, directors, depicts the everyday life and the beauty of Portela’s Old Folk – a group of veteran samba musicians who belong to one of Rio’s most revered samba schools, the one with the most first places and accolades in Rio’s Carnaval pageant. These old gentelmen’s and ladies’ musicality and poetry are unveiled through their simple, but rich and meaningful, every day life in Oswaldo Cruz, a quaint neighborhood in Rio’s North Zone, that serves both as set and as a main character in this story.

边看边想起了令人拍案叫好的《乐满哈瓦那》，相比之下，《桑巴的秘密》显得沉闷多了。这也许和导演的功力有关 :p
