as minhas coisas favoritas, e outras que não o são, pois nem sempre se tem o que se quer

busby berkeley + carmen miranda

·


quando no primeiro post foi referida a preferência por filmes musicais anteriores à música no coração (mais a querida julie andrews) referiamo-nos aos filmes das décadas de 30 e 40 onde toda a realidade era fantasia
para lá da referência óbvia e elegante de fred astaire e ginger rogers prefere-se a loucura desenfreada e megalómana de busby berkeley que só ficou a ganhar quando se juntou o frenesim da nossa carmen miranda
em baixo dois excertos de "the gang's all here" de 1942, durante a campanha de "política de boa vizinhança" entre os eua e o brasil

when in the first post was mentioned the preference for musical movies older than the sound of music (and the dearest julie andrews) we were referring to movies from the 30's and 40's where all the reality was fantasy
more than the obvious and elegant reference to fred astaire and ginger rogers it's preferred the megalomanic and unbridled madness of busby berkeley that only gained more when joined by the franticness of our carmen miranda (yes, she was born in portugal and immigrated to brazil with her family when still a child)
bellow two excerpts of "the gang's all here" from 1942, during the "good neighbor policy" campaign between usa and brazil
