Água e Sal (2001)
15 Feb 2002 • Drama • 1h 57m
A contemplative and, ultimately, underwhelming story about a woman struggle on an imminent divorce.The coastal village of Tavira is a nice setting but that's pretty much it. Performances range from decent to atrocious (specially when there's kids on screen) and the movie is plagued with the usual portuguese cinema limitations of that time, namely the horrible sound design and mediocre lighting. The cherry on top being that strange tradition of having lead foreign actors dubbed in post.I want to give my appreciation for Alexandre Pinto, who shines as a troubled secondary character and probably the only interesting subplot thing going on.
