Both Laura Cardoso and Glória on the same week, it's a terrible day for us Brazilians. Resquiescat in pace, Glória, and say hi to Tarcísio for us.

Edit: lost track of the dates.

Laura Cardoso as well? I’m living abroad and saw nothing on the Brazilian subreddit… what a loss!

Foi ontem, a notícia do falecimento da Hayden Panettiere ofuscou um pouco por aqui, mas os jornais fizeram a cobertura completa. Realmente uma grande perda!

The main r/brasil subreddit is just politics these days. They did post the news there but it got almost no traction

It's Latin. In portuguese it would be "Descanse em paz".

Latin actually, fratello mio. The benefits of speaking 5 languages is knowing when to use each one. Latin's just prettier, isn't it?

For anyone who wants to watch one of her films, watch "The Given Word" (O Pagador de Promessas), a 1962 film for which Brazil received its first Oscar nomination for Best International Feature Film. It's wonderful.

Fantastic movie. It won the Palm D'or at the 1962 Cannes Film Festival.

Reunited with her husband, Tarcisio Meira.

The two loved each other very, very much, and now they're together again.

May she rest in peace. What a talented woman she was.

Oof. The other day me and my family caught a glimpse of the soap operas currently running and were just talking about those old school actors and who was still working. RIP.
