Extractions: native Brazil not only once, but twice. Giancarlo Iosue Often times, many Latin American popular culture icons, like Carmen Miranda, are embedded with images of nostalgia and tragedy. Nostalgia, because she represented a part of popular culture that had not yet reached its prime; a culture of a national identity that was transformed into the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, rather than an ambassador of a country rich with life, history, music, and brasilidade (Brazilianness) that represented the history and plight of its people. Tragedy, because her life ended when she was in her prime, she was only 46 years old. She lived a life that could have inspired many great things for the benefit of her Brazil, as well as for Miranda, herself.

MMI Review: Carmen Miranda: Bananas Is My Business carmen miranda Bananas Is My Business. Movie Magazine International Review.(Air Date Week Of 2/21/96). By Monica Sullivan. carmen miranda. http://www.shoestring.org/mmi_revs/carmen.html
Extractions: (Air Date: Week Of 2/21/96) "Carmen Miranda: Bananas Is My Business", Helena Solberg's documentary of her legendary career, is mainly valuable for its rare film clips, dating back to the thirties. But the subtext, that Miranda was "Our Carmen", namely Brasil's own, tends to grate after awhile. Once Carmen Miranda left Brasil for first Broadway, then Hollywood, she returned just three times in sixteen years, once to be treated with indifference by upper crust Brasilian audiences, once to recover from exhaustion, and finally for her funeral. It was because little Helena's parents wouldn't let her join the million people lining the streets for the services that she became obsessed with Carmen Miranda's complicated relationship with her homeland. But the evidence she chooses to illustrate her theories is largely supplied by subjective voice-overs and a few interviews with wistful friends, family, colleagues and employees. Nowhere is it made clear that Carmen Miranda wanted any other life than the one she had. True, she died young, on the very night that a television performance left her breathless. (The actual clip is shown in slow motion.) But dying young doesn't necessarily mean living unhappily and the unsupported gossip rumours that Solberg includes reveal her own iconographic obsession, not the real Carmen Miranda.

Extractions: Although she preferred to be known as South American, Maria do Carmo Miranda da Cunha - her real name - was born on February 9, 1909, outside the small town of Marco de Canavezes, near Porto, Portugal. She came to Brazil with her mother, Dona Emilia, and her elder sister, Ollinda, when she was only 18 months old. Her father, Jose Maria, a barber, had come somewhat earlier to get settled. The couple were to have four more children: Amaro, Cecilia, Aurora, and Oscar. (Aurora would also become a famous singer. Once in Brazil, father Cunhan established a very prosperous wholesale produce business, and Carmen, the oldest of five children, was enrolled at the Convent of Saint Teresinha (in Lapa, the Rio de Janeiro neighborhood where the family lived), for her education with the Sisters of Charity; the institution provided free schooling for poor girls. Her liveliness set her off among the other children. When the Nuncio visited the school, Carmen read one of his poems, and, as a prize, was kissed on the forehead by the distinguished visitor.

Extractions: Quando Carmen Miranda , em 1939, embarcou no Rio de Janeiro e chegou ao porto de Nova Iorque, era uma ilustre desconhecida do público americano. Bastou-lhe porém um mês para conquistar a Feira Mundial, a Broadway e extraordinária popularidade. Logo veio o convite do cinema. Era o seu triunfo na América e em todo o mundo, que permanece até hoje, pois seus trajes, sua graça, sua personalidade e sua voz são uma marca registrada única. O que ninguém sabia na América é que Carmen já tinha 10 anos de carreira no Brasil como cantora de disco, do rádio e no cinema. Era a mulher mais famosa e amada do Brasil, recordista absoluta de vendagem de discos e também a "Embaixatriz do Samba", já que, nos anos 30, fez 8 excursões à Argentina para cantar nas rádios de Buenos Aires e, de passagem, em Montevidéu. Era verdadeiramente o símbolo da alma brasileira. Por isso, a ida de Carmen aos EUA, se provocou o orgulho nacional, trouxe depois alguns ressentimentos nos brasileiros pelos 14 anos consecutivos de sua ausência do Brasil. A " ingrata Carmen " nos havia abandonado!
