Abstract

This work aims to present and discuss the critical reception by foreign media regarding the movie The hour of the star (1985), by Suzana Amaral, which is based on a homonymous novel by Lispector. The paper also seeks to (re)assess the relevance of this movie for cinematography and the dissemination of Lispector’s literature; as well as its ability to transpose literary language. Our methodology consists of a critical review of foreign media texts published between 1987 and 2019.
