Guarany is a 1950 Italian film directed by Riccardo Freda and starring António Vilar, Mariella Lotti and Gianna Maria Canale.

[4] Italian film historian and critic Roberto Curti commented that "the lives of Verdi, Rossini, and Bellini offered not only entertainment, but also a reminder of the country's past glory as a popular antidote to the misery and squalor unearthed by Neorealism.

"[4] Director Riccardo Freda was set-up with the subject of Antônio Carlos Gomes, a Brazilian composer who was popular in Italy.

[1][2] The film grossed a total of 8,750,000 Italian lire domestically, which Curti described as being "virtually ignored by the public"[2] and being panned by critics on its release.

[6] The film was popular in South America, where it earned Universallia and Gianna Maria Canale a lot of press.
