Bingo: The King of the Mornings (Portuguese: Bingo: O Rei das Manhãs) is a 2017 Brazilian biographical drama film directed by Academy Awards nominee Daniel Rezende in his directorial debut. Written by Luiz Bolognesi, the screenplay is inspired in the life of Arlindo Barreto, one of many actors who played Bozo the Clown in Brazil.[2] However, to avoid copyrights claim and preserve its creative freedom, the production does not use either the name of Bozo or Arlindo, adopting the fictional names of Bingo and Augusto, respectively.
The film was released in Brazil on August 24, 2017. On September 15, it was selected as the Brazilian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 90th Academy Awards, but it was not nominated.[3][4]
