    Truly a beautiful movie. I know it has received a lot of criticism for its simplistic portrayal of Brazil, but I think that can be attributed to the fantastical nature of the film. It’s bright and dreamy, but also cold and haunting. Orpheus’s story is timeless, and the chaos of Carnival is an inspired setting for the tale. Despite its age, Black Orpheus really holds up.

    it’s true that Tarantino’s movies work best when everyone involved is morally grey, as opposed to just seething beta Nazis vs. chad Jewish Americans. Still good tho. and yeah he put feet in it
