Why watch the movie Chorão: Marginal Alado?
"Dead in 2013 at the age of 42, Chorão became a legend in Brazilian music. With his own style, incorporating mannerisms from American skate culture, he made history with the band Charlie Brown Jr. and with hits that remain alive in pop culture, such as 'Dias de Luta, Dias de Glória', 'Só os Loucos Sabem' and 'Proibida pra Mim'. Now, Chorão's short (and intense) trajectory is told in the movie 'Marginal Alado', by Felipe Novaes. The film does not stray far from the already battered and beaten biographical documentaries about MPB musicians and singers -- such as Simonal, Raul Seixas, Mamonas Assassinas and many others -- with a succession of interviews and archival images. However, fans of the singer and songwriter, who has become almost like a messiah of a religion based on skate, strong phrases and a good beat, will undoubtedly be moved. When hearing excerpts from his hits, it is easy to remember his story with Chorão's trajectory and, consequently, how his life was accompanied by the songs of the Paulista. A movie to travel in the vibe and essence of Chorão."
