I watched this film in the fall and have been meaning to blog about it but it hadn't happened until now. I download a lot of my entertainment from iTunes, and this was the case for Woman On Top as well. The synopsis of the movie said nothing about Brazil (I checked after), rather, the fact that the woman in the film moves to San Francisco was what interested me. As the opening credits rolled and the film began with "Once upon a time in the land of Bossa Nova" complete with Portuguese stone streets, I had to laugh. Sometimes you just can't escape Brazil.
It's a cute movie - kinda lost my interest towards the end - but worth checking out. Penelope Cruz is very cute (though not exactly Brazilian).
The soundtrack was definitely one of the film's highlights:
