"Eduardo e Mônica" (Eduardo and Monica) is a song from Brazilian rock band Legião Urbana's 1986 album Dois, released as 😄 promo single. It tells a romantic story centered on a couple formed by the 16-year-old Eduardo and the older college 😄 student Mônica, who are very different from each other.[1]
This version has a different ending than the one from the album. 😄 In the latter, it is stated that in a certain vacation period, the family could not travel because the son 😄 was retaking a class in school.[a][3] In the original version, the couple's son is still yet to be born and 😄 that they didn't get married in a church, but at Eduardo's ranch. Some verses were already scratched by then: "With 😄 an Indian flutist who marked the time signature/ All all friends..." They built a house somewhere close to the sea 😄 and went to Bahia, Ouro Preto and Rio de Janeiro. Eduardo got a job at Banco Central and Mônica is 😄 a professor.[3]
The song inspired a play by Adolar Gangorra in which he depicts Eduardo as a victim of "a newspapers' 😄 culture pages pop culture, which Monica makes him follow".[4]
A film based on the song was announced in 2024 with Gabriel 😄 Leone and Alice Braga on the titular roles. It will be directed by René Sampaio, who also directed Brazilian Western, 😄 another film based on a Legião Urbana song. The film was due on 11 June 2024 and it was screened 😄 at the 2024 edition of Miami International Film Festival,[5] before it was cancelled following the COVID-19 pandemic.[6] By June, its 😄 premiere date was still uncertain due to the pandemic.[7]
^ "Recuperação" is a method of school grade recovering common in Brazilian 😄 schools. Should a student fail a particular subject, they have a chance of raising it to approval level by taking 😄 some extra classes and doing more tests. It is somehow similar to Summer schools in the United States. It's also 😄 not unlike the practice of taking remedial tests in north American colleges.
