Two husbands are better than one. Still funny

Two husbands are better than one. Still funny after all these years. This film, like Ofreu Negro, is permeated with the Afro-Brazilian spiritualism which is still present in much of Brazil. It helps to read the wikipedia articles first (because I had to stop the movie to learn who Ezu was): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macumba and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umbanda.

Silly taste of Brazil

As a confirmed Brazilophile who has visited that charming country many times, I can easily affirm that this film will come as close as any other to providing you with the authentic flavor of Brazil. What keeps this from being a really good film is its essential silliness. Another reviewer has recapitulated the plot fairly well, so I don't need to do that here. Suffice it to say that I don't find it incomprehensible that Flor would put up with her first husband's peccadillos as the price for passionate sex. What I do find incomprehensible is that a woman as passionate as Flor would put up with her second husband's ineptitude at lovemaking. He wears both his pajamas and his underwear to bed and keeps them on when he makes love, and she keeps her nightgown on as well. Why doesn't she rip all of the clothes off and teach him something? Oh well..........

Wonderful comedy with sexy Braga, Wilker

I rate Bruno Barreto one of the best Brazilian directors ever, and certainly DONA FLOR AND HER TWO HUSBANDS emerged as a noteworthy early success in his career.To that end he is masterfully helped by the deceptively simple cinematography of Murillo Salles, the musical score by Chico Buarque da Holanda, and the script off writer Jorge Amado's famous novel.Set in 1943 Salvador da Bahia city, DONA FLOR is imbued with the colors and fragrances of that coastal town, and Barreto keeps the action tight, with touches of human kindness and understanding while others continue backstabbing and decrying everything.Clever ending. 8/10.
