Question: Do both directors of films My Home Is Copacabana and Samoa, Queen Of The Jungle share the same nationality?

Arne Edvard Sucksdorff He was particularly celebrated for his visually poetic and scenic nature documentaries. His works include" Pojken i trädet The Boy in the Tree") and the Academy Award- winning" Människor i StadSymphony of a City"). ( 3 February 1917, – 4 May 2001) was a Swedish film director, considered one of cinema's greatest documentary filmmakers. Perhaps Sucksdorff's most widely admired work was the internationally acclaimed" Det Stora Äventyret( 1953) The Great Adventure") about a year in the outdoors told in semidocumentary fashion from the viewpoint of a farmboy. It is noted for its remarkable photography and authentic scenes of nature, and its appeal to children for its story of domesticated otters. Sucksdorff also appeared as an actor in this film, portraying the father, while his real- life son is an actor as well. The film won the International Prize at the 1954 Cannes Film Festival and the Big Silver Medal( Documentaries and Culture Films) at the 4th Berlin International Film Festival. In the early 1960s, Sucksdorff moved to Rio de Janeiro, where he taught cinema at the film school and continued making documentaries, as well as the documentary- style drama" Mitt hem är Copacabana My Home Is Copacabana"), which is controversial due to Sucksdorff making up a back story as a street orphan for one of the main actors, a nine year old boy from Ipanema, whose daughter told the real story in a 2019 book. The film was entered into the 1965 Cannes Film Festival and the 4th Moscow International Film Festival. Sucksdorff also won the award for Best Director at the 2nd Guldbagge Awards. At the 29th Guldbagge Awards he won the Creative Achievement award. In later life, he became an outspoken critic of deforestation and a fervent environmentalist. Sucksdorff's last film was the 1971 feature" Cry of the Penguins"( also titled" Mr. Forbush and the Penguins"), starring John Hurt and Hayley Mills. He died of pneumonia in 2001 at his birthplace, Stockholm, Sweden. <SEP> It was entered into the 1965 Cannes Film Festival and the 4th Moscow International Film Festival. My Home Is Copacabana is a 1965 Swedish drama film directed by Arne Sucksdorff. Sucksdorff won the award for Best Director at the 2nd Guldbagge Awards. In 2019, Toninho's daughter Anna de Lima Fagerlind published a book titled" My Home is Not Copacabana" about her father's experience in connection with the filming. According to the book, Toninho was nine years old when Sucksdorff came to Rio and picked him to star in the movie. Toninho was presented as an orphan street child, which was not true as he had a mother and siblings and lived in a favela house overlooking Ipanema beach, and flown to Sweden to promote the movie. While in Sweden, a wealthy family offered to adopt Toninho, and his mother reluctantly agreed having seen his brother slide into criminality. Brother Paulinho became a cocaine kingpin in Rio, while Paulinho stayed in Sweden, graduated from Stockholm School of Economics and had daughter Anna with a woman from posh Lidingö. The book sheds a new light on the back story of the movie and is controversial because of how Sucksdorff invented a fake but more dramatic back story for Toninho and used him to promote a movie that gave his career a needed kick start. <SEP> Samoa, Queen of the Jungle is a 1968 Italian adventure film directed by Guido Malatesta. <SEP> He began working as a professional journalist, after he moved to Rome he was drawn to cinema, as creator of treatments, then scriptwriter and assistant director, and finally becoming director in 1957 with the film "The Billionaires".
