Review :
It  is  good film, but  not  a  great  one.
 This  film  was  the  first  brazilian  production  exhibited internationally  after  receive  a  prize  of  Best Music  at  a Cannes Film Festival. It  was  distributed  accross  the  world  by  Columbia Pictures  and  was  very  successful  at  the  box  office.
I  understand  why  foreign  audiences still  enjoy  it, but  for  us brazilians  it's  very  artificial  when  the  hero  leaves  the  semi arid background  where  the  bandits  live  and  penetrates a  deep  jungle  to fight  a  jaguar etc, since  those  geographical  regions  are  separated by hundred  and  hundred  miles,  like Arizona  from  Oregon. Anyway  the music  is  amazing  as  the  photography  and  the  actor  who  plays captain Galdino ( Milton Ribeiro ). I  believe  that  the  main  influence of  director  Lima  Barreto  was  not  the american  westerns  as  most  of people  say,  but  the  mexican  films  of  Emilio Fernandez  like "Enamorada". "O cangacero"  is  a  good  film, even  if  not  not  a  great  one  and deserves  the  fame  it  has.
