Question: dora ( fernanda montenegro ) sits behind a make - shift desk at rio+s major train station .
she , in her colorful demeanor , offers a service that is unheard of in the states .
she writes letters for the illiterate , who pass through , to try to find lost relatives , find love , or search after lost debts .
she+s
quirky , she+s elderly , she+s caring .
totally trustworthy , right ? not a chance .
once home , she never sends these letters , saving money on postage , and relishing in the drama contained therein with her neighbor irene ( mar ?
lia
p ? ra ) .
one of the letters is sent by a young mother with her nine - year old son , looking for their father .
shortly thereafter , she gets hit by a bus , and the son is orphaned .
days go by , and the boy , named josu ?
, roams around the station , hungry , desperate , and somewhat clueless to his predictament .
through a series of circumstances too precious to elaborate upon , dora somehow takes a responsibility in trying to find josu ?
+ s father .
this means leaving the security of rio , traveling to the outskirts of brazil , where unpaved roads , religious devotees and the poverty - stricken become commonplace .
films like this remind me as to what i enjoy about some foreign films .
it is an opportunity for me to get a fresh breath in another part of the world , so distant from my own .
it does so entertainingly , and so heart - wrenchingly
.
and yet , it+s backdrop is merely that .
the focus is on the minute transformation of dora , of how she learns to love this little kid , without being cloying or sentimental .
the most interesting backdrop is the amount of religious dedication is in the film .
dora being an amoral scam - artist , could care less about the amount of bickering between the candle - lighting of the catholics versus the bumper - sticker mentality of the evangelicals .
but neither side is trivialized .
she even begins to develop an affection for a non - drinking evangelical , who sees the problems with dora , if not initially .
fernanda montenegro surprisingly got an oscar nomination for this very delicate performance , but the true marvel is that of vinicius de oliveira , who plays josu ? .
he , like the discoveries of j ?
r ?
mie renier
( _ la promesse _ ) and giorgio cantarini
( _ life is beautiful _ ) , prove that the true acting discoveries may be outside of the united states .
he is a natural , and never once grating .
send a memo to jonathan taylor thomas .

Answer: P

Question: a slight romantic comedy with a feminist bent , but one with no edge to it .
it turns out to be a conventional film filled with the usual clich ?
s and stock characters of this genre .
though it 's a well - written and well - acted fluff piece , it still does not have too much to say that is surprising .
it 's made for the gentle art - house set , those who do n't want something too disturbing to think about .
it 's about a critically successful writer husband , alec ( pryce ) , who is so self - absorbed that he 's threatened by his department store floor - walking model wife , kate ( bouquet ) , who wants to be a writer .
she meets his crass publisher , vanni corso ( walken ) , another self - absorbed man , and a predictable relationship occurs .
the fireworks occur because she outgrows her husband 's first impressions of her as someone who was impressed with his genius and worships at his feet .
she now wants her own identity and her independence .
the film looked like the usual sitcom stuff , and is plagued with the cheap set design features reserved for a tv movie .
the film sagged in the middle of the story from the weight of its tedium , and eventually landed on its rear end with its unspectacular climax .
it 's set in london , and it opens as model kate rebuffs sexual advances by a wealthy american shopper , vanni .
she later meets him as her hubby 's new upstart publisher who seeks to have her intellectual author husband in his stable in order to give him credibility as a publisher of quality , and he quickly wins favor with her by publishing her vanity novel .
alec who is an obnoxious grouse , someone whom it seems it would be impossible to live with , tries to do everything to stop his wife from having her book published -- which only pushes her into the grasping arms of vanni .
the publisher is proud that he 's a mamma 's boy who never married and is a self - made man who has earned millions .
he has recently acquired a failing old london publishing house and plans to revitalize it , as he proudly tells kate : " if my father could sell pizzas in harlem , i could sell culture in europe .
"
the only thing that could n't be sold , is this stiff story and tired plot line .
the mystery to me , is how the lovely kate could like either man unless she was an insensitive dummy .
she soon divorces the beleaguered alec and marries the soon - to - become - beleaguered vanni .
when she writes a second novel , he rebuffs her the same way her first hubby did .
it ends with the same results that happened to hubby number one , as its story of ambition and lust winds down in a whimper .
a business affair was loosely based on the real - life literary and romantic travails of married authors barbara skelton and cyril connolly , in their celebrated 1950s love triangle .
