Reception[edit]
In the criticism of the website Filmes do Chico, it is stated that 'because it was associated with Xuxa as a pedophile, the film gained a fame that does not correspond to the material it offers.' Like all of Khouri's films, Amor, Estranho Amor has many sex scenes, a lot of free nudity, but, putting the drops on the is, it's a good movie.'[5]
Controversy[edit]
Love Strange Love caused some controversy due to the participation of Xuxa in the cast. In an interview, Xuxa explained that she was between 17 and 19 years old when the film was made. In another interview Xuxa comments that the film was made in 1979.[6] Her character has sexual relations with a boy of 12 years, interpreted by the actor Marcelo Ribeiro.[7] As in the contract there was no release of the image for video, Xuxa, through a judicial injunction, ordered to collect all the original tapes of stores and stores of the country, nevertheless 4,000 copies were sold before the Justice to distribute its distribution, being, therefore, many pirate copies continued circulating, making of the film a true legend among people who did not know the work.[8]
The video of Love Strange Love has its marketing and distribution prohibited in the country. However, the film was released on DVD in the United States in 2005 and can be purchased by any Brazilian on foreign import sites. The US producer did not sell the rights to Xuxa, who filed a lawsuit in the US in 1993, but lost. In 2006, Marcelo Ribeiro was found at 39 and gave several interviews, and also published a book on how everything happened at the time, including conversations behind the scenes with the actress.
In 2007, taking advantage of its momentary popularity, it made a pornographic film. In 2007, Marcelo Ribeiro, then at age 40, gives an interview where he comments on the film's controversy.[9] In 2007, the entire film became available in 5 parts and uncut. No legal action has yet been taken on the case. In 2011, producer Anibal Massaine fights in justice in the attempt to commercialize the film, taking advantage of the fame of the artist.[10] In 2014, Xuxa lost a lawsuit it filed against Google to create a filter in order to eliminate results related to the movie in its search engine.[11] Xuxa filed an appeal against that decision but had, in 2017, the appeal denied.[12]
