Speaking of someone mentioning the amazing film City of God in the Latin American films thread, has anyone heard of the Salles-directed City of Men debuting tonight on the Sundance Channel? Apparently it's been airing for quite awhile on Brazilian TV and is just now coming to the U.S.

Frankly, it just looks like more of the same, but it could be very interesting. I'll definitely be watching.

This is a really good show. I like how they use all the same actors from the movie to play different characters.

Is far from being hardcore as City of God.

I've really enjoyed the first disc of this. I love the way these kids talk, the storylines, everything. To the Brazilians of the board, how realistic is this?

Uolace!
