THEY DON'T COME IN PEACE

Science Fiction, when used correctly, is able to incorporate social and political themes into the narrative and characters under the guise of UFOs and aliens. Pedro Oranges and Victor Cazuza certainly aren't subtle with the message they're trying to state, but the end result is still effective and sticks with the viewer. Always a nice change of pace seeing filmmakers from outside of Europe and the US tape into the Sci-Fi genre to tell their stories.

Every time I think of that scene in A princesa e o robô where Cebolinha falls (I think off a tree?) and someone (Franjinha?) asks "Tá doendo?" (Does it hurt?) and he answers back with a weak "Só quando eu respiro..." (Only when I breathe...) I laugh.

It's been well over 20 years since I first saw that scene and it still makes me cackle.
