"The whales of August"... "As baleias de Agosto"...

"The whales of August" (1987) is one of my favorite movie. The film tells the story of two elderly widowed sisters  spending a summer in a seaside house in Maine. The surroundings cause them to recall their relationship as young women, and the summers they had enjoyed there in the past. They reflect on the passage of time, and the bitterness, jealousies and misunderstandings that slowly festered over the years and kept them from establishing a true closeness in their relationship.
A beautiful movie and I strongly recommend it!

"As baleias de Agosto" (1987) é um dos meus filmes favoritos. O filme conta a história de duas irmãs idosas e viúvas que vão passar o verão em uma casa de praia no Maine. O mar e a paisagem desencadeiam recordações dos momentos que passaram juntas quando jovens e fazem vir à tona as amarguras, os ciúmes e desentendimentos tecidos ao longo dos anos que dificultaram que ambas estabelecessem uma relação mais próxima.
Um lindo filme que eu recomendo vivamente!
