If you are Brazilian, if you were born in Rio Grande do Sul, and still remember life in the 60s, this movie will make you laugh - you will enjoy it! The plot is simple, the story line is simple. However, when you suspend disbelief, and just enjoy the scenery, the songs, the humor, you will feel a lot better at the end! It is not great cinema, nor a masterpiece - it does not need to. It is simply a sample of a life style that does not exist anymore, and of a singer (Jose Mendes, who sang the title song, a huge hit in 1969, 1970) who has left a lasting impression and beautiful songs. Unfortunately, his career was cut short in a car accident.There is a lot to love and remember in "Para Pedro".
