The Secret Agent, the much heralded Brazilian film [View all]

is now streaming on Disney+ and Hulu. It moves slowly, at a 2:45 running time and it helps to know something about the political situation in Brazil in 1977 when a corrupt, authoritarian government was still in control. I thought the film was an absorbing and rich tapestry of memorable characters and tense situations as well as a cautionary tale of political and personal struggle. Highly recommended.
