O amor é filme: a fic??o do real em Lisbela e o prisioneiro – da pe?a ao filme

摘要

The aim of this study is the comparative analysis of Lisbela e o prisioneiro (Lisbela and the prisoner),Osman Lins' play (1961), with the homonym film by Guel Arraes (2003), focusing on thetransmutation of the text from novel to filmic. Both are characterized by the regionalism (hinterlandof Pernambuco), getting the "stories", accounts and incidents witnessed by friends and acquaintances,using popular characters, regional expressions, sayings written in truck bumpers, retaken in aninteractive and seductive language, where the receiver recognizes himself/herself and the freedomvalues are catharsisly incorporated. Interactive, inter-textual and carnivalized, Guel Arraes'movie riseswith readings of national and North-American films which shape a kind of "popular" repertory, andmoreover, in a self-reference process, explains the structure and composition of his movie throughthe narrator character and the "off " voice, both of which dialogue with the watchers, becoming agift to the filmic narrative. Here is the place where reality and fiction are joined in a new order, ruledby connotation and by the cooperative role of the receiver.
