Review of Violeta Went to Heaven (2011) by Farran Smith Nehme for New York Post — 29 Mar 2013
The biographical bits soon feel like a distraction from the music, performed by Gavilán. It’s heard often, but not often enough. Judging by the movie, Parra’s songs are fiery and haunting, sometimes sensuous, sometimes bleak.
When Parra sings, the movie becomes worthwhile.
