Watch This


Eu Não Quero Voltar Sozinho, a Brazilian shot subject that has wracked up over three million views since it was uploaded on YouTube in 2011 is a perfect little gem of a film, guaranteed to leave you with a great big goofy smile on your face.  A feature length version, now called Hoje Eu Quero Voltar Sozinho, with the same wonderful cast (Ghilherme Lobo and Fabio Audi are the two boys, and Tess Amorim is the girl) has been playing the festival circuit, and will be opening in Brazilian cinemas soon. (The English title is The Way He Looks, which is in no way a translation of the Portugese.) Although I don't think the original can be improved upon, the trailer looks very nice. The feature film obviously adds complications to the story, and ramps up the sex content a notch. 


 
Props for the Belle and Sebastian song in the trailer. Great choice. And here's a bonus picture from behind the scenes.
