I loved the deep love between the two brothers and the sacrifice one another makes to spend as much time as posslbe- It it a symbol a vicious cycle until until some gutsy person decides to break free- like the kid that dies at the end and the older boy that breaks away from their family...they both reach a type of freedom...

Beautiful.

I love this movie! I've watched it five times already and I just can't get enough!

This is a great movie, i just wanna say that everybory need to see this, because is just beautiful!!

This movie makes you think and ponder on things and how life can be complicated depending on the culture, traditions, and family ties. but most of all, the film showed us the realization of the costs of pride and how can one simple decision make a difference in breaking the entire cycle.

Fascinating! The film is kept simple but immensely moving, just like the alternation between sun and rain in the barren lands of Brazil.

Breathtaking images but the story is simple and shallow. Works as a poem-movie.

Walter Salles is a GENIOUS!

Beautifully woven tapestry of love, honor and brotherhood.
