Nico Icon
Nico Icon ★★★ 1995 (R)
Documentary probes the life of Velvet Underground sensation and Warhol superstar Nico. A pastiche showing V.U. concert footage and movie clips from Nico's most famous film appearances: Fellini's “La Dolce Vita” and Warhol's “The Chelsea Girls.” Also features interviews from Warhol's Factory inhabitants, band members, and Nico's grown son Ari. Visually as interesting as the subject herself, film manages to bring the viewer closer to the untouchable Teutonic figure without being sensational or overly flashy. Director Paul Morrissey and musician Jackson Browne make appearances. Some French and German language; subtitled. 75m/C VHS, DVD . GED: Susanne Ofteringer; W: Susanne Ofteringer; C: Judith Kaufmann.
