Jango

The story of João "Jango" Goulart, the Brazilian left-wing president deposed by the military.

Jango



The film depicts the life and career of Jo�o Belchior Marques Goulart, known as "Jango", a leader of the Labor Party which eventually (and accidentally) became President of Brazil. Distrusted by the conservative wings and underestimated by the left, Jango defied both sides by presenting a plan for structural reforms in the nation's major problems. His intentions, however, were halted by a military coup, which found no resistance at all, and threw Brazilians into a 20 years dictatorship. This documentary tries to debate how na�f President Jango was and how the right-wing managed to win so easily. Written by Pedro Aguiar &#x! 3C;paguiar@alternex.com.br>

And Blade definitely likes being thought of as important instead of as trouble, if only the teacher would stop hitting on him for a date. Written by Brian W Martz <B.Martz@Genie.com>
