Carnaval Barra Limpa (1967)

 A young starlet is visiting Brazil during Carnival. She wears a necklace with a huge diamond which is coveted by several robbers.

Worthless comedy which is shoddily scripted and fuzzily directed; the film's main box office appeal derived from the musical numbers featuring some very popular singers of that era. The cinematography is vey competent, and the film has some very beautiful shots of Rio de Janeiro and at a luxury hotel where the action is set.

Rating: 12
