Book, Cinema of my eyes, O[LS]

Vinicius de Moraes loved cinema. He maintained the habit of frequenting the dark room, writing criticisms and comments, following the changes - technological and aesthetic - in the seventh art. This acquaintance with films increased significantly when, at the end of the 1940s, the then young diplomat went to serve at the Brazilian consulate general in Los Angeles. A name in cinema, he was able to interact with stars such as Orson Welles and Carmen Miranda, among others. This edition, organized by critic Carlos Augusto Calil, brings new texts by Vinicius de Moraes about cinema, its great directors and great stars. Lyrical, sometimes critical, always very well-informed, the cinematographic writings of the great Brazilian poet continue to be an invitation to enjoy the screen and the page.
