Title: One of the best soundtracks ever
Product review: When I went to see "To the left of the father", Luiz Fernando Carvahlo's first film, at a film festival, I immediately understood I was not watching a movie, but living an experience, and since then it ranks between my favorite films. Based on the novel written by the Brazilian peasant Raduan Nassar, the three-hour-long movie stands up as a work of art by Carvalho's domination of the cinematic subject, the cast's brilliant acting, its complex script, superb photography, and, of course, its musical score. Gimaraes, the composer, has reached with this soundtrack a supernatural result, which cannot be compared with any musical score in my recent memory (not even Morricone's best, which I particularly like). So, in conclusion, I recommend this soundtrack eyes wide shut. But I think the movie does not receive yet the importance it should have. I hope, day by day, the film gets published on DVD, to be internationally discovered and wildly applauded.
