José Anselmo dos Santos aka "Cabo Anselmo", leader of the 1964 naval mutiny a few days before the coup, when he was only ~22, died last Thursday at the age of 80. He's a deeply reviled figure in the left, hated even more than the most famous torturers. He was arrested after the coup for leading the left-wing mutiny, escaped, joined the the left-wing guerrilas and, having become a turncoat at some point, snitched on his friends to the dictatorship, leading to the arrest, torture and death of several. Then authorities faked his death and he went into hiding to escape retaliation, only emerging years later. He's accused of having been a double agent from the very beginning, and thus the mutiny was always one big CIA/Navy plot, but there's no hard evidence and that makes less and less sense the more you study the event.

Sadly, the local movie industry doesn't seem to have the interest or means to make a proper war epic.
