Resumo: This paper will discuss the representation of the “myth” of the marvelous city attributed to the Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro by looking at the contemporary Brazilian film production and its creation of new paradigms for representing and understanding Brazilian cultural identity. It will also comment on the concept of production of space through the analysis of the cinematic representation of Rio de Janeiro in the film The Man of the Year (O Homem do Ano, José Guilherme Fonseca, 2002). This film generally touches on many relevant matters related to the understanding of contemporary Brazilian urban life and cultural identity commenting on the concepts and discussion such as: the city of imagination; the city as a product of a certain cultural uneasiness in relation to current concerns about identity and its confusing relationship to time and space; the city as embodying the notion of an entire country imagery; and finally, the city combining two opposing poles: the city as a civilized and modern space and the city as a traditional and primitive space.

Trata-se aqui também do conceito de produção do espaço por meio da análise da representação fílmica do Rio de Janeiro no filme O Homem do Ano (The Man of the Year, José Guilherme Fonseca, 2002). Esse filme discute de forma genérica sobre vários elementos relacionados ao entendimento da vida urbana brasileira contemporânea e sua identidade cultural comentando sobre conceitos e discussões do tipo: a cidade da imaginação; a cidade como produto de certa instabilidade em relação à problemática do conceito de identidade e sua relação confusa com/no tempo e espaço; a cidade que comporta a representação imagética de todo o país; e, finalmente, a cidade que combina dois polos opostos: a cidade como um espaço moderno e civilizado e a cidade tradicional do espaço primitivo.porUniversidade do Vale do Rio dos SinosUNISINOSBrasilMythUrban and cultural identityCinematic cityRio de JaneiroBrazilian cinema and the myth of “Rio de Janeiro: the marvelous city”Cinema brasileiro e o mito “Rio de Janeiro: a cidade maravilhosa”info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Institucional da UFRNinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)instacron:UFRNORIGINALMaria Helena Braga_Cinema brasileiro e o mito.pdfMaria Helena Braga_Cinema brasileiro e o mito.pdfapplication/pdf489623https://repositorio.ufrn.br/bitstream/123456789/19323/1/Maria%20Helena%20Braga_Cinema%20brasileiro%20e%20o%20mito.pdfb53a9ab683c532d351438e24837ae3f3MD51LICENSElicense.txtlicense.txttext/plain; charset=utf-81563https://repositorio.ufrn.br/bitstream/123456789/19323/2/license.txt2fca3d993fd069474a9dfb5156c39499MD52TEXTMaria Helena Braga_Cinema brasileiro e o mito.pdf.txtMaria Helena Braga_Cinema brasileiro e o mito.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain55294https://repositorio.ufrn.br/bitstream/123456789/19323/7/Maria%20Helena%20Braga_Cinema%20brasileiro%20e%20o%20mito.pdf.txt9c402b76d705e2b246a8176f2ed45ecdMD57THUMBNAILMaria Helena Braga_Cinema brasileiro e o mito.pdf.jpgMaria Helena Braga_Cinema brasileiro e o mito.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg6083https://repositorio.ufrn.br/bitstream/123456789/19323/8/Maria%20Helena%20Braga_Cinema%20brasileiro%20e%20o%20mito.pdf.jpg3d93824f3463e960928cf867b6daa303MD58123456789/193232017-11-02 15:42:08.41oai:https://repositorio.ufrn.br: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ório de PublicaçõesPUBhttp://repositorio.ufrn.br/oai/opendoar:2017-11-02T18:42:08Repositório Institucional da UFRN - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)false
