Amor Estranho Amor Love Strange Love 1982 English Exclusive [updated]

Why “exclusive”? Because for decades, the original Portuguese-language version of Amor Estranho Amor was overshadowed by a mythic, hard-to-find English-dubbed cut. This version, often titled Love Strange Love , was circulated on grainy VHS tapes in the 1980s international market. Today, finding the print is akin to discovering lost treasure.

Fearing that the adult-oriented film—specifically her brief erotic scene with the child actor—would destroy her wholesome image, Xuxa’s legal team fought a decades-long battle to suppress the movie. For over 20 years, she held an injunction that prohibited the film's distribution, making it an "exclusive" find for collectors and underground cinema fans. It wasn't until 2021 that the legal barriers were finally lifted, allowing the film to be seen by a modern audience. amor estranho amor love strange love 1982 english exclusive

By 2024, the English-exclusive version of Love Strange Love has been removed from major streaming platforms (including Amazon Prime and MUBI) due to updated international standards on simulated sexual acts involving minors. However, bootleg DVDs and “exclusive English uncut” torrents circulate on adult sites. The original Brazilian cut remains available on the Cinemateca Brasileira’s archival system, viewable only for research. Why “exclusive”
