Info

Inspired by the moving book “Só as Mães São Felizes”, by Lucinha Araújo, Cazuza's mother, the film covers a little more than 10 years of the singer’s crazy and brief life – from the beginning of his career in the Circo Voador venue, in 1981, to the huge success and the apotheosis of his shows with the Barão Vermelho band, his solo career, his relations with his parents, friends, lovers and passions, and the courage he had to face his final years, with HIV, until his death, in 1990.

Cazuza: Time Doesn't Stop Audience Reviews

CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Raul Faust First I have to state I'm not a fan of Cazuza the singer. I find his songs a little senseless, they're just good to listen to because they're full of rhymes with enjoyable melody. I'm also not a fan of Cazuza himself, in my humble opinion he's not someone to be inspired by. Also, I don't identify myself with him in many aspects, just in some vague thoughts.The main beautiful thing about "Cazuza: the time doesn't stop" is the love of his parents. He used to be the kind of son nobody would like to have. He didn't care about studying or working, was on drugs, got aids, had sex with men and wasted much of his parents' money. Nevertheless, his parents still loved and supported him in every decision of his life; they were by his side whenever he needed, even if he didn't deserve to be so well attended. That's one thing that moved me throughout this tearjerker film.Daniel de Oliveira was very good at portraying this guy, he learned to speak just like Cazuza sang, using that Rio accent yet whistle. The rest of the cast is regular and do their job simply as they are. In my opinion, this is one of the best Brazilian's films from the 00's.
fuufuu-1 It was very disappointing because I wanted to know about who was Cazuza, why he was writing those songs and saying how bad was his family, his class and the evil Brazil.All I've discovered was a spoiled child that want to do everything he intend to. There were no repercussion about his real personal life and how he became friend of the Barao Vermelho's members again after their separation and discussions.After all, its pointless to watch it if you have no idea about who is that guy, that Brazilian singer... The last part of the movie should't longer, it was the most dramatic part of his life and that kind of thing works on movies biographies. Maybe his mother didn't want to watch it or reaffirm the disease his is remembered for.
leonardozeligbrazil Cazuza is the name of one of the most incredible singers in Brazil,he begun in the 80s with his band called Barao Vermelho,after the great success of the band he decided to start a solo career,but his future was drastically destroyed by his death in 1991 of AIDS.But actually nothing could stop Cazuza because he still inspire people in Brazil,so in some way he remains alive in all of us.The movie is incredible and a real masterpiece.Daniel de Olivera plays the singer and gives a performance that makes you be astonished by his talent.No one on earth could play Cazuza as Daniel played!The way he speaks,he acts,it's almost creepy!He is Cazuza you are going to be quite impressed!Everything in his story is poetic, his music sometimes in the movie speaks for itself, and the beauty of his musics makes us sad and happy in the same time.Na explosion of feelings is what you feel,marvelous feeling.The time doesn't stop but Cazuza made it stop.And he could do whatever he wanted!Viva Cazuza!
Flavio Velame I was very interested in watching Cazuza. His story is well-known by most of the Brazilians that lived during the 80s rock moment. But Cazuza himself was not really explained in the movie. It was based in the book of Lucinha Araujo, Cazuza's mother, and it seems that she tried to convince herself and the others that she was a good mother and he was a good son. If you are a parent, you can take you own conclusion about this. All the self-destructive behavior of Cazuza doesn't fix in this scenario.From where it came from? For his rebellion with the homophobic world? Or it was a consequence of the inexistence of limits or punishments in a high-class Brazilian family? For who knows the story, the movie looks like a poor documentary. If Cazuza is considered the real Brazilian poet of the 80s, he deserved a better explanation.
