What We Think

'The King of The Cattle' offers a refreshing return to classic storytelling, with family, tradition, and rural values front and center. Early Globo dramas like this one are practically a relic of the pre-woke era, expect good old-fashioned conflict without the modern ideological overlay.

Mildly Woke
