Antonio Fagundes, one of Brazilian television's most distinguished actors, departs 'Quem ama cuida' this week after a seven-year absence from the medium — his return brief but indelible. His character Arthur Brandão, a jeweler of contradictions, dies during a blackout at his own wedding, a moment that is at once narrative mechanism and genuine farewell. There is something quietly melancholic in the way great actors leave stories: not simply through plot, but through the particular gravity they take with them.
