7 rural sins

Written by 

Is a comedy that will make laugh even the cobblestones. A simply must see.

As is public knowledge I am a declared fan of Quim Roscas and Ze Estancionâncio and thus, quite naturally I went to my nearest cinema to enjoy another of the adventure of these two goofy guys from Curral de Moinas. And let tell you, contrary to what is been said, I did not come out disappointed. Quite the opposite. "7 rural sins " is a comedy to make us laugh and cry for more, the genius , in my view, lies in two very clear components, the script and the team of actors . Henrique Cardoso Dias and Frederico Pombares deserve, I think, an A plus score, for the witty, unpretentious and fun writing that sent me immediately to the wonderful episodes of Telerural. Some of the scenes are truly hilarious , the scriptwriter duo took the double meaning of the Portuguese language very hard and help to exaggerated  very well the little things of daily life in a village lost somewhere in Northern Portugal . And I do not think it was essential to contextualize the main characters, because both Quim as Zé do it in a masterly manner, on the contrary! Another strong dish of this film are undoubtedly the actors , starting with the two singles sinners, respectively , João Paulo Rodrigues and Pedro Alves, who need no introduction , I am unable to say which one is better, since both are delicious when they play distinct cameos in the film . However, the best performance fell in the lap of brilliant actress Patricia Tavares, in the skin of amusing Bald Celia; my only regret is that we do not see her in this kind of humorous parts more often. Was masterful the way she captured the essence of the character. I do not want to leave out the other two girls who enlivened the village feast of Curral de Moinas , the cousins , Rachel and Patricia, played by Alda Gomes and Melanie Gomes , who also printed a lot of action and joy to this sinful adventure. As a footnote, I just leave one more comment, the appearance of Nicholas Breiner only confirmed what we already knew about him, and he is really God, since he appears in almost all Portuguese films. I beg you, forget the sorrows of the day -to-day and the crisis and go to see this lighthearted and fun "7 rural sins " promise is a sin worth committing ! Good movie.
