Review of Olga

Olga (2004)
3/10
A Big Mistake
3 February 2016
One of the most cheesy movies I've ever seen. A fantastic story that was wasted in a completely tacky film, mushy and extremely loaded. I regret that we wasted a chance to do a remarkable film of a moment so important and so unique in the history of our country, involving such amazing characters as were Luis Carlos Prestes and Olga Benário. Unfortunately the choice of director and cast followed the novel patterns are printed it too hard in the film. The use of soundtrack is a separate chapter. It is always over the top, trying to push hard emotion, taking any subtlety that may exist in the interpretations of the cast. This makes it impossible to actually get emotional as before some important dialogue begin the violin is already playing deafeningly. A big waste.
