Orfeu Negro -1959- ((full)) [UPDATED]

Orfeu is engaged to Mira (Lourdes de Oliveira), a woman of volcanic jealousy and earthy pragmatism. But his heart is elsewhere, or rather, it is waiting. Enter Eurydice (Marpessa Dawn), a shy, innocent country girl who has fled to Rio to escape a man she claims is trying to kill her. She arrives at the train station just as the Carnival madness begins.

If Orfeu Negro is remembered for one thing above all, it is the music. The soundtrack—composed by the legendary duo Antônio Carlos Jobim and Luiz Bonfá—did not just score the film; it narrated it. orfeu negro -1959-
