Nem Sansão Nem Dalila

“Chanchada”是50-60年代在巴西影坛流行的一种喜剧片类型，用夸张的形体，幽默的对白，略带超现实的故事情节更主要的是对腐朽政府机制和社会现实的讽刺。 Barber's jeep crash against crazy scientist's house, where the latter was building a time-machine. The crash triggers the machine, taking them to Gaza kingdom, circa 1153 B.C., where they get involved in many funny situations. Spoof of Cecil B. DeMille's Samson and Delilah (1949). This was the first blockbuster in the Chanchada Movie gender. Spoof of Samson and Delilah (1949 version), it's actually a funny criticism on the Brazilian populist government. Horácio travels through time to Gaza where he meets Samson. Impressed by Horacio 'magic powers', Samson exchanges his hair for Horacio's cigarette lighter. With Samson's powers Horacio recreates the Brazilian government in the Gaza kingdom. With all of its defects. Of course, the former Gaza governors are not happy with the situation, but they can't do anything as long as Horacio has Samson's hair. And that's where Dalila enters of course.
