Brazilian miracle

One of the main roles, we see the great Antonio Fagundes, whose play, as always, is beyond praise. His twin brothers are not so similar to each other, it seems that he played them at different times - even in different years. Wonderful actor. Brother-crook in his performance is very charming and is sympathetic, despite his indiscretions. A twin deceived them, often showing sensitivity and generosity, sometimes just looks disgusting. However, at first there is one advantage - his love for his wife, as we see the actress Cassia Kiss. Remember, she was beloved Fagundes in the series "In the Name of Love"? Yes, the same Isabel, who Hatillo left to connect with Elena. Running a little ahead, I will tell you that in the "Harbor Wonderland" Kiss heroine will have to go crazy with jealousy Management of jealousy  Management of jealousy
   to his wife.

TV series is composed of two parts. The first - in fact, the background, the second event takes place in the tradition of Dumas twenty years later. But much of what is happening with her characters has its roots in the past. Next to the already known to us, the main couple - Fagundes and Kiss - there is another, which is gradually coming to the fore. These are the heroes Marcus Palmeira (in Chico "castles in the air") and Flavia Alessandra (Sonin in "Love Story"). Perhaps not coincidentally Flavia played first major role in his life in the series, directed by her husband Marcus Paulo. Special beauty girl does not shine, but quite pretty, so we got used to it and just unassumingly appearance.

And, besides, "Beach Dreams" so many beautiful women that some deviation in standards might even please. Suffice it to recall that in this novel we will meet with Tais Araujo (Vivian in "cruel angel"), Monica Carvalho (Clara of "Summer of our secrets," and Neuza of "Love Story"), Paloma Duarte and Carolina Casting (sister of " Land of Love "), Daniel Faria (Adriana from" Gentle poison "), Zhuliey Lemmerets (Maria Elena of" castles in the air "), Carla Marins (Joyce of" Love Story "), Christiane Oliveira (Selena from the" Summer of our secrets ") , Leticia Sabatella (Celeste of "Tower of Babel") and many others. In general, there is an eye on someone - male! - relax. And I will give to services other than those recognized as sex symbols like Fagundes and Palmeira, offered to Leonard Brice (Ricardo of "Cruel Angel ') and Jose de Abreu (Daniel of" Love Story ") in the company of two dozen young actors.

Wonderful music, great camera work (especially in marine scenes), the intrigue, entangled in such a master as Amadou, aerobatics acting - what more could the heart of the fan series? But the birth of this telenovela foam high literature gives us all a chance to attach to the view of those members of the family that formerly neglected genre so low. What you and I wish you success.
