 OFFOFFOFF film review NINA Brazilian movie by Heitor Dhalia with Milhem Cortaz, Anderson Faganello, Juliana Galdino, ...
In "Nina," the setting is today's Sao Paulo instead of St. Petersburg a century ago, and rather than a young male student, the deadly philosopher is a young female comic-book artist with the drawing talent of R. Crumb and the macabre viewpoint of Harlan Ellison.
Young Nina — with her smeared fl eyeliner and deep fl shags of hair that droop into her eyes — parties and fucks with a vengeance when she ignores the rest of her life.
Nina's like any bright-eyed young adult who leaves the safety of home for the excitement of the big city, only to find herself trapped in an uncomfortable rent situation with an intolerable landlord/roommate.

 Nina (2004)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
As a portrait of the difficulties facing Brazilian youth, the film serves as its own worst enemy since, in the case of its protagonist, it makes the difficulties appear to be self-imposed.
Director Heitor Dhalia also wants to have it both ways - Nina steals from a blind man but then she gives part of her loot to a woman who's been violently thrown out of a cab for not having the money to pay for the ride.
And I have nothing wrong with unlikeable protagonists (they can make for compelling films) but that the film attempts to elicit feelings of sympathy for her while not giving us any reason to.

Although she is perhaps better known for the show tunes and standards of the first stage of her career, I tend to prefer the slightly later RCA records (this is one of them) and their more experimental / modern references.
"Nina Simone And Piano!" is a great combination of the two - not quite as steeped in contemporaneous covers as her other RCA records, but still "current", while the music is stripped down from both (earlier) jazz and (later) rock-styled arrangements.
