Comédia à Portuguesa
''Comédia à portuguesa'' (; Portuguese Comedy) is a term conventionally used to refer to the genre of popular Portuguese film comedies made in the 1930s and 1940s. The light-hearted comedies are predominantly set in petit-bourgeois milieus in traditional Lisbon neighbourhoods and are often accompanied by musical performances, mainly light music, fados or folk songs. The popular revue (''teatro de revista''), the national equivalent of the North American vaudeville or the British music hall, had a marked influence over the ''comédia à portuguesa'', including the talents of the actors, writers, and musicians. '' The Song of Lisbon'' ("''A Canção de Lisboa''", 1933), the first sound feature film fully produced in Portugal, is considered to be the first style-defining ''comédia à portuguesa''. This and a number of subsequent films are still popular in Portugal today, and the term ''comédia à portuguesa'' has become an enduring common term for the successful classic comedies ...
