Talk:Bye Bye Brazil

Clean-up of dead links?
We have a large number of links to pages that just don't exist. While I wouldn't want to discourage anyone from making these pages, it would seem that these actors aren't notable enough. Any objections to removing the dead-links on them? --John Wukong (talk) 17:54, 16 April 2014 (UTC)

Fixed Plot Summary
I've attempted to revise the entire plot from what was basically a move blurb to a actual synopsis. Its not fully detailed, but its much more correct then the information that was there, and I strongly recommend against going back to the previous description.

Untitled
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. - —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.140.194.39 (talk • contribs)

Fair use rationale for Image:Bye-bye-brasil-poster02.jpg

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Reception Section
I've added a section on cultural reception of the film. I've moved the two sentences about the awards from that section down from the opening down to that section. I've also added descriptions from a variety of good sources, two journal articles and the New York Times reveiw. My one worry with this is that it mainly documents the North American and Europeon reception, I'm not entirely sure how the film was received in Brazil. If anyone has information or sources on that, it would be greatly appreciated. --John Wukong (talk) 18:33, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
