Once upon a time there was a conceited and unfaithful Queen (Meiry Vieira) that frequently consults her magic mirror to learn if there is anyone prettier than she. When her husband the King (Xandó Batista) passes away, the Queen believes that her lover the Prince (Dênis Derkian) will marry her. However, the Prince meets the virgin Clara das Neves (Adele Fátima) and shags her in the woods; then he tells the Queen that he wants to marry her stepdaughter. The jealous Queen hires the Hunter (Costinha) to shag Clara das Neves and execute her. However he lets her go and Clara das Neves meets the seven dwarfs and she moves to their house. Only the dwarf Nervous, who is gay, does not have sex with Clara das Neves. The six dwarfs and Clara das Neves are happy with their lives; when the Prince finds Clara das Neves, she prefers to stay with the six dwarfs, but the Prince brings Nervous with him in his horse.

"Histórias Que Nossas Babás Não Contavam" is a funny erotic spoof of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In 1979, this comedy was very successful and a great number of the youngsters went to the movie theater to see this joke with the fairy tale of the Brothers Grimm and the mulatto Adele Fátima is very naughty in the role of Clara das Neves (the translation would be Snow Egg White). In the end, the dwarfs prove that size doesn't matter… My vote is six.

Title (Brazil): "Histórias que Nossas Babás não Contavam" ("Stories that our Nannies did not Tell")

A famous sexploitation (Brazilian 70's and 80's genre Pornochanchada) parody of Snow White and the seven dwarfs, full of unfunny gags on sex, on homosexualism and even on sexual harassment. On the other hand, in the role of Clara das Neves ("snow white" in Portuguese), beautiful actress Adele Fátima (who starred several pornochanchadas) is better than ever here. It must also be highlighted that the script at least has one merit: it mocked once on Brazilian military dictatorship (which entered its less repressive later years but was not over yet) by mentioning Institutional Acts and the Amnesty.

The movie is a parody of Snow White and the seven dwarfs, very funny indeed. The plot is similar to the famous tale, except Snow White, in this case Clara das Neves, is the king's daughter with an African queen, who died already. The actual queen is malignant just like the original tale.

Clara das Neves is played by the stunning Adele Fatima, famous mulatto model and actress with a superb body. The queen is also very beautiful and there are many hot scenes.

This movie is a classical of the "Pornochanchada" genre. Although there is much prejudice about this genre, I like it very much. It is not pornographic, it is just an erotic comedy, without explicit sex scenes. Sometimes you get excited and sometimes you laugh, and better, sometimes you laugh while excited.

Despite many technical problems such as sound, the movie is well resolved. The plot is in its essence very funny, as the original Snow White story is subverted in an erotic tale. The virgin princess Clara Das Neves is deflowered by a bankrupt Prince who had an affair with the queen, who is Clara das Neves' stepmother. The Queen's mirror keeps telling her that her stepdaughter is prettier and younger than she.

The highlight of the movie is when the Queen calls the hunter, played by Costinha, an memorable humorist who passed away a few years ago. His scenes are so good that make you understand why he became part of the history of Brazilian comedy.

The director is also very famous and made more then 50 movies, most of them in the Genre Pornochanchada.

Grab your girl and enjoy this funny movie.
