The objective of this work has been to make a comparative analysis of the female characters of Edgar Allan Poe "Berenice," "Morella" and "Ligeia" and the homonyms characters created by Paul Biscaia Filho, the Brazilian filmmaker in his short film production ―Nevermore – Três pesadelos e um delírio de Edgar Allan Poe‖. Following the translation and cinema critics, we argue that the transfer of one text into another, though a semiotic translation, is strongly influenced by the receptive culture. Hence we chose the comparative and translation critics to compare these two texts; the source text, that is the stories by Poe and the target text; the film ―Nevermore‖ produced by Paulo Biscaia Filho to see Biscaia Filho‘s production in the context of Brazilian culture. By presenting the similarities and differences between the characters created by Poe and Biscaia Filho, starting from the selection of the stories, that is specifically three stories with central female characters and titles, we try to highlight Biscaia Filho‘s awareness about the audience and their cultural background. The comparison helped us to conclude that the Brazilian culture plays a major role, not only in the way he restructures these characters, but also by his selection of these specific stories with female dominance.
