- TriviaHelena Ramos talked about one of the most controversial scenes of her career in which she played a scene with a horse. The actress told the Memória do Cinema project that the production used peppermint candy to attract the animal to her, and that the scene, despite being controversial, was nothing special. "They got a thoroughbred horse, a beautiful animal. And that horse liked peppermint. Then, they smeared the candy on my breasts for him to lick. It's the only scene that actually happened. The rest was up to people's imagination", she revealed.
Featured review
An erotic and psychological drama
This little Brazilian production of 1979 is quite a good movie. The photography is simple and so does the sound track, with good instrumental music. The actors seem to be dubbed in studio, which guarantees a good sound, however sometimes it is out of sync with the image.
Besides technical imperfections, the plot is very interesting. Alice (Helena Ramos) is a recent widow, married to a psychiatrist interested in sexual issues of the mind. She finds his audio tapes and listen to it, which contains some psychiatrist sessions recorded. She is strongly influenced by the recordings and start doing things just like her husband's patients.
It has some hot erotic scenes, as any other Brazilian movie of that time. Helena has a stunning body, very natural, different than the actual pornographic women, who have an artificial shape. There are two controversial scenes with a horse, what rose polemics at the time of the release. But notice that it is not only a sexual relation with the horse, she really loves the horse Jumbo, and is jealous about this relationship. She said in an interview that the trick to the horse lick her, was pouring a mint cream over her body.
The drama of her sexual psyche is very thrilling and is the high point of the movie, like the erotic (not pornographic) scenes. There are also some poetic scenes, very beautiful and surprising, and I didn't expect it.
It's a good movie, 7 out of 10.
It shows often in "Channel Brasil" and is sold in the internet (a pirate copy).
