POPULARITY
“The Secret Agent” is one of the most celebrated international films of the year. It has been nominated for four Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Actor. The film stars Wagner Moura and is set in Brazil in 1977, during the final years of the military dictatorship. We speak with the film's director and screenwriter, Kleber Mendonça Filho.

¿Quién es el protagonista de "El agente secreto"? Quizá no sea, como parecería obvio, el perseguido político interpretado por Wagner Moura. La multipremiada película de Kleber Mendonça Filho es difícil de clasificar: es un thriller político, pero combina otros géneros. Tiene guiños, homenajes y capas. Y aunque se refiere a los años de la dictadura en Brasil, es una película cálida y nostálgica, en la que la presencia más poderosa es la de su director.

Kleber Mendonça Filho dirige El Agente Secreto, seguramente el estreno más destacable de esta semana que cuenta con importantes nominaciones al Oscar y que parece que se llevará como mínimo el de mejor película internacional. La película brasileña que protagoniza Wagner Moura se las verá con los montañeros Álvaro Cervantes, Bruna Cusí y Marc Martínez en Balandrau, viento salvaje. También esta semana: terror con La maldición de Shelby Oaks y cine catastrófico con Greenland 2.
Introduction: Minutes 0 to 1:45 Chandra has been going through a tough time and we've been protecting our peace. We celebrate our 20 year anniversary next week! I founded Celebitchy in February, 2006 and Chandra has worked here since late 2008. Royals: Minutes 1:45 to 14:00 Prince Andrew was arrested at Wood Farm in Sandringhham on Thursday for "suspicions of misconduct in public office." New documents in the latest Epstein file release suggest that he traded confidential information with Epstein in a kind of quid pro quo for access to trafficked girls. Police also searched Andrew's former residence, Royal Lodge. Andrew had to be forced out of Royal Lodge earlier this month after being spotted riding his horse and waving to tourists. He was originally supposed to move out last year. In the latest cache of Epstein files it came out that Epstein had trafficked a 20-year-old woman to Prince Andrew in 2010. Andrew could face years in jail. King Charles issued a statement after Andrew's arrest saying, in part, "the law must take its course." His previous statement from February 9 was that he stands "ready to support" the police "as you would expect," and "their Majesties' thoughts and sympathies have been, and remain with, the victims of any and all forms of abuse." Other family members have also said they were thinking of the victims. Charles and Queen Elizabeth's defense has been that they believed Andrew's lies. This defense falls flat when you consider that they had MI6 at their disposal. Andrew still has royal protection somehow. We learned too many things that we don't want to know about Epstein and his evil associates. We don't get into the details. I pay a segment from Zoom from last week we talked about the royals and Epstein. Chandra hopes that Andrew has to face real consequences and thinks this may be the end of the monarchy as everyone is involved. We've heard that Prince William's charity received donations from known close associates to Epstein. Will and Kate are mishandling this despite hiring a crisis manager. William recently did a BBC interview were he talked about men's mental health. This was widely criticized as tone deaf. Oscar-nominated movies: Minutes 14 to end Chandra has seen Sinners, One Battle After Another, Marty Supreme, The Secret Agent, Bugonia, Frankenstein and half of Sentimental Value. I've seen Sinners, One Battle After Another, Marty Supreme, Frankenstein, Train Dreams and half of Hamnet. I didn't like Train Dreams or Hamnet, although I only saw half of Hamnet. Chandra loved Sentimental Value and says the acting is amazing. She hopes Wagner Moura wins best actor for The Secret Agent. She loathed Marty Supreme and thinks Timothee Chalamet should not win for that performance. I liked Marty Supreme a lot. My favorite movie is Sinners and I want Michael B. Jordan to win. Chandra wants Teyana Taylor to win supporting actress. This awards season has been chaotic. I also saw If I Had Legs I'd Kick You and didn't like it. Chandra liked Bugonia but mostly for the ending. She also loved Lanthimos' Poor Things and thinks Emma Stone deserved the Oscar for that.
Min 5: EL AGENTE SECRETO (4 estrellas) El agente secreto es uno de los títulos más relevantes del cine internacional reciente: con dos Globos de Oro ganados y cuatro nominaciones a los Oscar, la película del aclamado Kleber Mendonça Filho se adentra en las sombras de la dictadura militar brasileña de 1977, siguiendo a Marcelo (sublime Wagner Moura), un profesor que vuelve a Recife buscando refugio solo para descubrir que el pasado no se queda atrás. La cinta, construida no como un thriller convencional, sino como un drama político sostenido por la amenaza invisible del régimen, muestra cómo la vigilancia, la sospecha y la represión se infiltran en lo cotidiano con silencios y miradas que pesan más que los estallidos visibles. Aquí la tensión proviene menos de explosiones que de la incertidumbre constante y de un ambiente donde la libertad está siempre a punto de romperse. Min 19: GREENLAND 2 (2 estrellas) Como secuela del éxito catastrofista Greenland (2020), Greenland 2 -también conocida internacionalmente como Greenland: Migration- continúa la odisea de la familia Garrity tras sobrevivir al impacto de un cometa y cinco años de confinamiento en un búnker. Ahora, obligados a abandonar su refugio, la lucha por la supervivencia les empuja a un viaje peligroso por una Europa devastada en busca de un lugar habitable. MIn 25: LA MALDICIÓN DE SHELBY OAKS (3'5 estrellas) En la línea del terror contemporáneo, La maldición de Shelby Oaks utiliza el formato de found footage (metraje encontrado) para construir un relato inquietante de obsesión y miedo. Lo que comienza como la investigación de una pista sobre una hermana desaparecida se transforma en un descenso a lo que podría ser una amenaza demoníaca real, arraigada en traumas infantiles. Min 31: SIN CONEXIÓN (2,5 estrellas) Bradley Cooper regresa a la dirección con Sin conexión, un drama con toques de comedia que se aleja del chiste fácil para explorar la crisis emocional de una pareja de mediana edad. Protagonizada por Will Arnett y Laura Dern, la película se asienta en la representación honesta de la fragilidad humana cuando la vida familiar y los planes se desmoronan. Min 38: EL FANTASMA DE MI MUJER (2 estrellas) María Ripoll firma con El fantasma de mi mujer una comedia negra de enredos que combina humor ácido con una premisa imposible: un hombre descubre que su amante ha atropellado (accidentalmente) a su esposa y lo llama para pedir ayuda. Lo que sigue es un caos de mentiras, paranoia y situaciones cada vez más absurdas, subrayado por la ambigüedad entre realidad y delirio. Javier Rey, Loreto Mauleón y Macarena Gómez encarnan personajes que oscilan entre la culpa, el absurdo y la comedia pura, ofreciendo una película que, aunque ligera en pretensiones, es eficaz en ritmo y tono. Es cine para reír con nervio, con una reflexión implícita sobre la culpa y las consecuencias de ocultar la verdad. Mi 45: LA BODA (2 estrellas) La boda marca la ópera prima del cineasta toledano Pedro Cenjor, una propuesta íntima y delicada que gira en torno a dos personajes que aceptan un matrimonio de conveniencia para aliviar una situación económica y emocional. Aunque el acuerdo parece perfecto en papel, pronto la convivencia y las circunstancias imprevistas obligan a replantearse el significado del amor y de los compromisos humanos. Min 53: ESPECIAL BSO TRIBUTO A ROBERT DUVALL En este episodio especial rendimos homenaje a la figura irrepetible de Robert Duvall, uno de los actores más sólidos y discretamente inmensos de la historia del cine. Recorremos su trayectoria a través de algunas de las piezas musicales más evocadoras asociadas a sus películas clave, deteniéndonos no solo en la interpretación, sino en la atmósfera sonora que acompañó sus personajes y ayudó a definirlos.Desde la sobriedad moral de Tom Hagen en The Godfather, con la inolvidable partitura de Nino Rota como telón de fondo, hasta la inquietante presencia de Boo Radley en To Kill a Mockingbird, donde la música de Elmer Bernstein subrayaba la inocencia y la sombra del sur profundo. Recordamos también su transformación en coronel Kilgore en Apocalypse Now, rescatando uno de los temas setenteros más emblemáticos, el The End de Los Doors.

Want to know the story of how Chris Hewitt almost stepped on Florence Pugh's dress? Well, this isn't the podcast for you, as it features Chris and Helen O'Hara trying to tell that tale, from the press night of Cynthia Erivo's Dracula (sorry, Draclier), only to get sidetracked by a dozen different things and forget to finish it. But if you want to hear Chris, Helen, James Dyer, and John Nugent talk about movie characters falling from great heights, pay tribute to the great Robert Duvall, discuss the latest The Mandalorian And Grogu trailer, and review The Secret Agent, Good Luck Have Fun Don't Die, Wasteman and If I Had Legs I'd Kick You, this is the podcast for you. Oh, and Chris and Helen launch new careers as theatre reviewers too. Guest-wise, Harry Stainer talks to the Oscar-nominated star of the Brazilian thriller, The Secret Agent, one Wagner Moura, and his director, Kleber Mendonça Filho. It's a cracking episode, even if we're still nowhere nearer to finding a nickname for Tin Jim. Enjoy.
Brazil has been a rising star in international cinema. The Secret Agent, a political thriller set in 1977 about a researcher trying to escape the country for unknown reasons, is just the latest film from Brazil to gain critical acclaim. Directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho and starring Wagner Moura, the film shows the tangible and intangible effects an authoritarian regime imposes on its people. Moura's character Marcelo, spends the film in hiding under an alias as he waits for assistance to get him and his son out of the country. Moura's central performance holds audiences in the precarious situation with him. The film has been nominated for four Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best International Feature, Best Lead Actor (Wagner Moura), and Best Achievement in Casting. Today on FilmWeek, Larry Mantle speaks with actor Wagner Moura about the film and its reception abroad. The Secret Agent is still playing in select theaters.

Siguen llegando a la cartelera las últimas películas nominadas a los Oscar que quedaban por estrenar. Y esta semana es el turno de 'El agente secreto', el thriller del brasileño Kleber Mendonça Filho con Wagner Moura que mezcla thriller setentero, cine de espías y hasta una pierna asesina para hablar de la memoria histórica. La que se ha quedado fuera de la temporada de premios ha sido 'Sin conexión', la tercera película de Bradley Cooper ambientada en la escena del stand up comedy de Nueva York. Además, tenemos una película de animación fantástica, como 'Little Amelie', y muchas propuestas del cine español como 'El fantasma de mi mujer', 'Balandrau' o 'Las líneas discontinuas'. En televisión, escuchamos al maestro italiano Marco Bellocchio por el estreno de 'Portobello' y a Pol Rodríguez y elenco de 'Ravalear', la serie española estrenada en la Berlinale.
En una semana en la que el cine nacional e internacional llega muy fuerte, en De película nos rendimos ante uno de los fenómenos del año, una de espías que ha arrasado en festivales y está nominada en los Óscar, su título, El agente secreto de Kléber Mendonça Filho, protagonizada por Wagner Moura. Intriga, drama, memoria histórica, un retrato crudo y envolvente de la represión bajo la dictadura militar brasileña en 1977. También nos quitamos el sombrero ante la película de animación Little Amélie, de Maïlys Vallade y Liane-Cho Han Jin Kuang, u,n viaje al alma de japón de la mano de una niña de tres años, que no es otra que la escritora belga Amélie Nothomb quien reflejó su infancia en el exitoso libro Metafísica de los tubos.En cuanto al cine nacional nos detenemos en dos de las películas que llegan a la cartelera: El fantasma de mi mujer, la nueva comedia de María Ripoll, una comedia romántica rozando el thriller, protagonizada por Loreto Mauleón, Javier Rey y María Hervás, y La boda, la ópera prima de Pedro Cenjor, protagonizada por Elena Furiase y Daniel Chamorro. Una película diferente, no es una comedia al uso, pero tampoco un drama como tal. José Fernández en su fuera de carta nos acerca una película que ha pasado por Berlín y se dirige al festival de Málaga, es la ópera prima de Ian de la Rosa titulada Iván & Hadoum. Todo esto además del resto de la cartelera, las mejores series con Pedro Calvo y las secciones habituales.Escuchar audio
V poznih 70. letih, v obdobju brazilske vojaške diktature, nekdanji profesor Armando Solimões pod krinko potuje v nekakšno komuno, zavetišče za politične begunce, kjer nadaljuje svoje življenje kot Marcelo. Medtem ko raziskuje tudi preteklost svoje družine in se druži z drugimi disidenti, njegovi nekdanji nasprotniki nadenj pošljejo atentatorje ... V današnjem času študentke zgodovine raziskujejo dokumente o brazilski preteklosti in skušajo z avdioposnetki rekonstruirati mrežo političnega odpora; pri tem pa v živo srečajo tudi zdravnika, nenavadno podobnega Armandu. Povzetek zgodbe brazilskega celovečerca Tajni agent (O Agente Secreto, 2025) pove pravzaprav zelo malo o tem vznemirljivem filmskem organizmu, ki ga podpisuje scenarist in režiser Kleber Mendonça Filho. Film postavi enačaj med osebnim in političnim; medtem ko gledalec skoraj kot forenzik po koščkih sestavlja usodo profesorja Armanda, se pred nami izrisuje tudi freska brazilske družbe in časa, oziroma značaja nekega represivnega obdobja. A hkrati je film na nek način zelo igriv, tudi duhovit; Mendonça Filho se spretno poigrava z nekaterimi žanrskimi zakonitostmi, etnološkimi posebnostmi in suvereno plava v »grindhouse« barvni paleti, ki še dodatno priklicuje sedemdeseta leta. Uspe mu biti celo smešen na preganjavičen na način Kafke, z vdori absurda, ki pa hkrati sledi sanjski logiki pripovedi. Ali bolje rečeno, pošlje nas na potovanje po meandrih spomina, ki preskakujejo med časovnimi obdobji, dogodki in identitetami. Film bi s svojo konstrukcijo zlahka zdrsnil v neprebavljiv solipsizem, vendar brez skrbi: ves čas smo v varnih rokah zrelega avtorja, ki ga je užitek opazovati pri delu. Na lanskem festivalu v Cannesu sta bila nagrajena Mendonça Filho kot režiser in Wagner Moura kot glavni igralec; njegov portret zadržanega intelektualca pooseblja tudi samega gledalca kot »divjega detektiva«, če lahko uporabim sintagmo Roberta Bolaña. Ta se mora znajti v kaotičnih situacijah, kjer nihče ni nujno to, za kar se sprva predstavlja, in kjer posamezna podoba ni nujno tudi resnična. Morda je neko širšo zgodovinsko resnico zares mogoče izkusiti samo z bogatim mozaikom fiktivnih anekdot. Tajni agent je slikovita, karnevalska filmska izkušnja mojstrskega cineasta, ki v domiselnem valovanju pripovedi utopi bolečino zgodovinske izkušnje. Film zares velikega platna in velikega avtorskega zamaha. In – nenazadnje – tudi slovo Uda Kierja, ki tu nastopi v svoji zadnji filmski vlogi. Bere: Igor Velše Piše: Gorazd Trušnovec

Viva Brazil! Today we discuss Best Picture nominee The Secret Agent, the simmering, colorful Brazilian thriller about a man on the run, starring the dreamy Wagner Moura and directed by Kleber Mendonça Filho.

On this episode, we discuss The Secret Agent itself, how it fits into and subverts the tropes of international films at the Oscars, the Eurovision-like process for international nominations, check in on the Berlin Film Festival, and do a very special Il Postino corner.

O Agente Secreto é um dos melhores filmes brasileiros feitos nos últimos anos, mas disso você já sabe. Realizado por Kléber Mendonça Filho e protagonizado por Wagner Moura, o filme tem um elenco maravilhoso, uma qualidade absurda e traz um Brasil dos anos 1970 de maneira única. É de encher os olhos, fazer o coração se emocionar e sentir mil coisas em todas as alegorias e linguagem desse filme. Neste episódio, Domenica recebe Senhor Basso e Lucien - diretamente do CabulosoCast - para mergulhar nesse filme e discutir alguns pontos sobre ele. Afinal, o que tem de brasileiro ali? Aquela Recife retratada existe? O que é e qual a origem da lenda da Perna Cabeluda? O que é a La Ursa e o que ela quer? Qual a mensagem clara que O Agente Secreto traz? Pra fechar, sabia que tem livro? Bom episódio! Apresentação: Domenica Mendes, Senhor Basso e Lucien Pauta: Domenica Mendes Produção: Domenica MendesEdição: Ace Barros
Het voor meerdere Oscars genomineerde The Secret Agent vertelt het meeslepende relaas van een man zich die in politiek roerige tijden, Brazilië in de jaren 70, probeert te herenigen met zijn zoon. Klinkt als een simpel uitgangspunt, maar de film van Kleber Mendonca Filho is geen makkelijke kijkervaring. Aan de MovieInsiders om een handje te helpen. Volgens Jasper en Gudo is dit zowel realistische als soms absurdistische epos namelijk een absolute must. En hoofdrolspeler Wagner Moura een terechte Oscarkandidaat. Na een diepe duik in deze film, passeren kort nog wat andere titels de revue. Hoe bevielen bijvoorbeeld Rental Family met Brendan Fraser en de 'bijna-docu' The Voice of Hind Rajab? En moeten we nog blind naar de nieuwe film met Daniel Day Lewis?Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/movieinsidersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Confira no Morning Show desta segunda-feira (16): A escola de samba Acadêmicos de Niterói, fez uma homenagem ao presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (PT-SP) na Sapucaí no último domingo (15). Com o enredo "Do alto do Mulungu surge a esperança: Lula, o operário do Brasil", a escola gerou polêmica e críticas da oposição, que aponta suposta propaganda eleitoral antecipada. Flávio Bolsonaro (PL), pré-candidato à presidência, utilizou suas redes sociais para dizer que vai protocolar uma ação contra o desfile e que a escola fez ataques pessoais contra o pai dele. A Polícia Civil de São Paulo recuperou mais de 60 celulares na operação de Carnaval 2026 neste último domingo (16). Dessa vez os agentes foram ainda mais criativos e se fantasiaram de turma do Chaves para capturar os criminosos. O senador Carlos Viana (Podemos), presidente da CPMI do INSS, solicitará uma audiência com Mendonça logo após o Carnaval. O objetivo do Congresso é ter acesso à quebra dos sigilos fiscal, bancário e telefônico de Daniel Vorcaro, dono do Banco Master. O Festival da Primavera, que marca o início do Ano Novo Chinês, começou oficialmente. Este ano é regido pelo Cavalo, o sétimo animal do zodíaco chinês, que tradicionalmente simboliza alta energia, inteligência, um espírito livre e independente, além de rapidez e superação. A repórter Bruna Milan detalha que as festividades duram cerca de 40 dias, gerando a maior migração humana do planeta: as autoridades esperam mais de 9,5 bilhões de viagens inter-regionais no período. O filme 'O Agente Secreto', longa que conta com o ator brasileiro Wagner Moura, não para de empilhar estatuetas. A produção acaba de vencer a categoria de Melhor Filme Internacional no Independent Spirit Awards, importante premiação independente nos Estados Unidos. O Carnaval de rua de São Paulo provou mais uma vez o seu poder de atração! Direto da Rua 13 de Maio, na Bela Vista, David de Tarso vestiu a camisa da folia (e os óculos escuros) para mostrar o clima do tradicional bloco 'Os Esfarrapados'. O ex-BBB Eliezer gerou polêmica nas redes sociais ao reclamar dos altos valores que sua família vem gastando com supermercado. Em um vídeo, o influenciador revela que as contas mensais para encher a despensa chegam a bater a marca de R$ 18 a R$ 20 mil. A banca discutiu sobre a situação. O clima de Carnaval toma conta do país, mas a festa também exige atenção redobrada com a segurança financeira, especialmente com a ação de golpistas no meio da multidão. Para ajudar a população a se proteger, o Morning Show conversa com o especialista em segurança da informação, Luiz Henrique Barbosa. Entre as estratégias de defesa, o apresentador Fernando destaca uma dica inusitada e valiosa: o uso de papel alumínio junto ao cartão de crédito para bloquear pagamentos por aproximação acidentais ou fraudulentos. Essas e outras notícias você confere no Morning Show.
What can we learn from other countries that have lived through dictatorships? How can artists fight authoritarianism? How should an Oscar nominee react to an encounter with ICE on the way to the Academy Awards? Alex Wagner is joined by actor and filmmaker Wagner Moura, star of the Oscar-nominated The Secret Agent — a thrilling, beautiful film set during Brazil's military dictatorship. You may also remember Moura as Pablo Escobar from Narcos. Wagner and Wagner discuss the political parallels between Brazil and the United States, what Alex Pretti's killing teaches us about masculinity, and the Trump administration's distorted response to violence in the streets. They also talk about the importance of cultural memory, what the Epstein Files say about power, Trump's reaction to Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance, and the gutting of The Washington Post. Jon, Tommy, and Lovett will be back in your feeds this week.

This week, our Gabfest panel includes Steve and guest hosts Nadira Goffe and Laura Miller with a typically eclectic collection of topics. First up, Dana hops on the call to decode the unspoken truths and dream imagery of Kleber Mendonça Filho's film The Secret Agent. Set in 1970s Recife, Brazil and starring a very charming Wagner Moura, the film is a heterodox brew of political thriller, magical realism, and attentive character study about the everyday surreality of life under dictatorship.Next, it's back to Westeros with a discussion of A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, a Game of Thrones prequel set 100 years before the original show based on George R.R. Martin's fantasy epic. Grounded and surprisingly funny, don't expect dragons in this knight's tale.Finally, they turn to “Gluttons for Punishment,” a recent Vulture article by Lila Shapiro about UPenn religious studies professor Justin McDaniel using some extreme, unorthodox measures to get his students to finish books.In an exclusive bonus episode for Slate Plus subscribers, the panel talks to Laura about the secret pleasures of wood stacking as discussed in her recent piece “The Art of the Holzhausen.”EndorsementsNadira: Some melancholy shoegaze pop from Scandinavia, specifically the albums Goodbyehouse by Snuggle and Big City Life by Smerz.Laura: The novels of Robert Jackson Bennett in his Shadow of the Leviathan series including Hugo-winning The Tainted Cup and A Drop of Corruption.Steve: The Substack essay “The Wall Looks Permanent Until It Falls Down” by Adam Bonica about the cost of American exceptionalism.And a bonus one from Dana: Pictures of Ghosts, the documentary by The Secret Agent director Kleber Mendonça Filho about Recife, Brazil in the 1970s.--Email us your thoughts at culturefest@slate.com.

We're taking a trip to The Bone Temple this week on Breakfast All Day, but don't worry. Ralph Fiennes has great taste in music, it'll be super fun. Here's what we've reviewed lately: 28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE. This picks up right where Danny Boyle's "28 Years Later" left off in 2025, but Nia DaCosta's film is very different: thrilling and terrifying in its own way, but also more somber, but also funny ...? Fiennes is insane here. In theaters. THE RIP. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck lead an all-star cast as Miami cops whose team stumbles upon a massive stash of drug money in this twisty thriller. This is the kind of substantial, mid-budget action movie we used to see a lot of in the '80s and '90s. Streaming now on Netflix. THE SECRET AGENT. We knew we wanted to catch up with Brazil's entry in the Oscar international feature category, and this was the perfect time. It just won Golden Globes for best motion picture - non-English language and best actor for Wagner Moura. We admire it but don't love it as much as our fellow critics do. In theaters. Movie News LIVE! Always a good time on Fridays. Among this week's topics were Kathleen Kennedy leaving LucasFilm; "Dune: Part Three" and "Avengers: Doomsday" competing on Dec. 18, aka "Dunesday"; and Matthew McConaughey trademarking his famous phrase, "Alright, alright, alright."

This week, we're only slightly hung over from last night's New York Film Critics Circle Awards! Griffin Newman joins the pod to discuss the event, where, among dry-run Oscar speeches from Amy Madigan, Rose Byrne, and Wagner Moura, we saw Ethan Hawke fall into a fountain beneath a towering Buddhist deity. Then we turn to the precursor circuit, where Marty Supreme's momentum has cemented Timothée Chalamet as a frontrunner for Best Actor. We get into how he's played the campaign circuit so far, and why Timmy and Marty are well positioned for the Oscars, despite not resembling the usual Oscar fare. Finally, we dive into Marty Supreme spoilers, before closing out with both an award and an in memoriam for the week.
