Aviso aos Navegantes (1950)

A ship leaves from Buenos Aires to Rio de Janeiro; in it go several artists, a stowaway, and a spy.

Musical comedy which is not very funny. I remember one sequence which I thought very funny: Frederico (Oscarito) impersonating a doctor ("...sistema vago-simpático, muito vago, muito simpático.."). The rest is either mildly funny or not funny at all. The musical numbers are simple, the songs are mostly mediocre, with the exception of two or three (there are a lot of songs in it). The camerawork is good.
