Go easy on the forums dude, you've only just started posting and you've already made three threads, all of them with little content in the original post. Try and limit the number of threads you make within any given period of time and fill out your posts with more text to give them better discussion value, or the mods may treat them as spam.
I'm Brazilian, I've never watched the movie though.

ah, but see there is no such thing in the english language as an "accent" as we understand it, accent for English speaking people is the same as "sotaque" for us, there is no "acentuação" in english, that's one of the reasons why I like it so much, it's very simple :P.
I'm a big fan of Caetano Veloso and Antonio Carlos Jobim. The Samba/Bossa Nova stuff is so interesting to me I've been learning Portuguese on my free time for the last few months.
Anyway, I'm just a generic American with no real ethnic background (unless you go back to past my grandparents)..
