Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands (Portuguese: Dona Flor e Seus Dois Maridos) is a 1976 comedy film directed by Bruno Barreto. Based on the novel of the same name by Jorge Amado, it takes place in 1940s Bahia.
It stars Sônia Braga, José Wilker, and Mauro Mendonça in the leading roles. The screenplay was adapted by Barreto, Eduardo Coutinho, and Leopoldo Serran. Plot[edit] The second half of Dona Flor involves Flor's meeting the respectable but extraordinarily dull pharmacist Teodoro (Mauro Mendonça), his courtship of her, and her marriage to him.
Flor's friends consider Teodoro the exact opposite of Vadinho. On the anniversary of Vadinho's death, Vadinho reappears to Flor in the nude and explains that she called him to "share her bed" with him.
