The Vulgar Hours (Portuguese: As horas vulgares) is a 2011 Brazilian drama film directed by Rodrigo de Oliveira and Victor Graize based on the novel Reino dos Medas, by Reinaldo Santos Neves.[1]

It was shot in black-and-white in Vitória, the capital of Espírito Santo state, in 2011. The film Regular Lovers, directed by Philippe Garrel, served as a reference. The soundtrack was composed by Fabiano Aguilar and consists mostly of jazz.
