Summary/Abstract: In the 50-ies and beginning of the 60-ies two great film critics and historians Paulo Emilio Salles Gomes and Alex Viany have a fundamental impact on the Brazilian Cinema novo and influence its flourishment and world recognition. With their erudition, knowledge of world cinema processes, huge critic’s activity and “militant cinephily” they educated and guided the young directors towards professional achievement and the search of national identity applying originally the lessons of the Italian neorealism and the French New wave. Their contribution to the revelation of the national film legacy, the new film movements, the foundation of a modern Film archive, the inauguration of the film education in Brazil and the oldest film festival in the country is undeniable.
