I just watched it and thought it was really good! The acting is superb and deserving of awards! I really hope they can push it to the 2016 Oscars, because it certainly deserve so. Go watch it!

It'll propably be nominated. Brazil has been really snubbed these past years so this better be nominated.

I hope so, my friend. It's about time for Brazilian cinema to get more Oscar attention and recognition. Not to mention this is a feel good movie, which the members of the Academy tends to prefer. So let's start the "For your consideration" campaign.

I always prefer having a Brazilian movie awarded at Cannes or Venice. Face it....Regina Case' would be only another "latino " chica, in the American circus of freaks. In the words of Fernanda Montenegro, when she was invited to work in Hollywood, "I don't want to play impoverished old indian women on film, for the American pleasure".

I agree with you...

This film is really amazing!

It is deserving - at least - of three nominations: Best Foreign Film, Best Actress - Regina Casé and Best Director - Anna Muylaert.

But if I would vote, I could put those three plus Best Supporting Actress - Camila Márdila and Best Film.

Good movie but no way it will win an Oscar. Not even close. Was more like a TV movie / novela.

It deserves at least a nomination

Unfortunately, it did not make the 9 top finalist to be considered for a nomination. It got robbed if you asked me! It was among the favorites on many lists! I wish they consider the movie for other categories: cinematography, screenplay, acting... It happend with Y tu Mamá También and City of God a while back...

This movie is good but it is definitely not as good as Y tu Mamá También and City of God.

Think of it: while cute and endearing, it keeps making the same point for two hours.

Wasn't the film released in 2014? If so how could it be a contender in the 2016 Oscars?
