I think the film overreaches in casting Simone as a standard-bearer against racism and sexism, but it’s filled with mesmerizing clips from throughout her performing career as well as numerous interviews with Simone, both audio and on film.

"What Happened, Miss Simone?" pulls you right into the life of the little girl, Eunice Waymon, who becomes Nina Simone. Through skillful use of archival audio and film, interviews and other contextual materials, and clearly with a genuine appreciation and love for the subject, Liz Garbus has found the thread that strings all of this material together; the genius and passion of a driven artist. Hearing the familiar songs with their stories, and learning about Nina's life journey, all somehow fits powerfully with contemporary racial issues in the US. This film can serve to educate, and inspire, as we continue to navigate the tortuous path to justice. Thank you for making this film, and bringing Nina Simone to even more people.

Nina Simone's talent is at the heart of this documentary. Viewers are taken on a moving chronological journey of her career and all of its trappings - personally and professionally. She emerges sympathetically as a deeply conflicted though flawed individual; strong yet vulnerable. In many ways she was at odds with the time period in which her career flourished and one can't help but question if her trajectory would have been different had she had the opportunity to pursue her prime passion - playing classical piano. The footage used - interviews (with her and those closest to her), photos and video - is impactful, visually appealing and seamlessly collaged together.

High Priestess of Soul indeed, and an excellent documentary. Nina Simone was haughty and imperious, cruel and difficult, but she was a brilliant and incomparable pianist, singer, and performer. Her righteous anger at the plight of African-Americans in mid-20th century America was at the root of her deeply affecting music.
