Review For Movie Violeta Went to Heaven
The formulaic storytelling has the unfortunate effect of making her extraordinary story feel familiar, though Wood's impressionistic style is a refreshing antidote to the portentousness one comes to expect from movies like this.Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader
With its clarity and depth, Gavilan's singing is as good as her acting.
Sheri Linden-Los Angeles Times
The biographical bits soon feel like a distraction from the music, performed by Gavilán. It's heard often, but not often enough.
Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post
poignant portrait of an artist unable to escape the stamp of her class or the burdens of aging.
Jeannette Catsoulis-New York Times
Violeta Went to Heaven's creators do a disservice to Chilean singer and multi-hyphenate artist Violeta Parra's legacy by making her suicide the logical climax to her working life.
Simon Abrams-Village Voice
A rare Chilean film that doesn't mention either the Allende or Pinochet regimes, Violeta Went to Heaven is a love letter to a lost 20th-century goddess. It's hard to resist her.
Michael Atkinson-Time Out New York
Suffers from an overtly conventional way of depicting the life events of an anything-but-conventional woman, a lazy flaw further highlighted by its brief moments of visual experimentation.
Diego Costa-Slant Magazine
The great draw here is theater, television and film actress Francisca Gavilán's performance as the conflicted, lonely multi-talent.
Donald J. Levit-ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Unlike most awards-grubbing biopics, this one feels no need to telegraph its own difficulty.
Sam Adams-AV Club
A well-acted and well-directed musical biodrama about the life and career of the Chilean singer and songwriter Viola Parra.
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice
More enjoyable as an exploration of Parra's music than her life, and well-performed by lead Francisca Gavilán.
Shaun Munro-What Culture
