Como é Boa Nossa Empregada is an intriguing piece from '73 that weaves together three distinct segments, each exploring the complex, often taboo dynamics between adolescent boys and their maids. The film's tone straddles the line between playful and provocative, offering a glimpse into youthful curiosity drenched in a somewhat risqué atmosphere. There's a certain rawness to its storytelling, reflecting the social mores of the time while also presenting a candid look at sexual awakening. Though the pacing varies, it captures that fleeting sensation of adolescence quite effectively, even if the performances can feel a tad uneven. Still, it’s this mix of innocence and mischief that gives the film a unique place in the landscape of comedy from that era.
This film has seen limited releases over the years, making it quite elusive for collectors. Originally distributed in smaller circuits and not heavily marketed, it’s often overlooked in discussions of 70s cinema. However, those aware of its existence often find it a fascinating exploration of youthful desire, lending it a certain underground allure. Copies can be hard to come by, and interest seems to be growing, especially among those who appreciate the unique storytelling style of this era.
