By My name is Mike
"M"
Sally Kirkland I was always attracted to and liked her acting. But like all her films that she gets a starring role. She will take all advantage of it. I get the feeling that she is I am woman hear me roar type. and thats exactly why she ended up doing alot of B films like a Shannon Tweed who I used to really like. The movie is defintely not American. I find the european film makers can be aloof in their ideas. Like they are missing a few screws. Even the good ones you watchin a Fellini film and your like what the ?

 The weight of the years!Jan 24, 2005
By Hiram Gomez Pardo
Sally Kirkland gave the best role of her career with this haunting portrait of a middle aged actress who decides to cast in USA after being a very well known actress in her birth country.
The struggling atmosphere and the winds of change experimented by Anna make the dramatic frame to receive her parent. You will realize how fast and temporal can result the affective ties when the greed and the ambition sharp the spirit.
The profound sensation of loneliness due the age in the acting world is the central focus of this intelligent and sensitive film. What can be the pretext to ignore the talent and experience of an actress whose only sin has been to surpass the forties? The acquired experience weighs less than nothing when the first wrinkles delineate the feminine face. It would seem that Faustian stigma has survived through the years and has embodied in the common sense of many people.
A mature film who could become in a vital reference point and late discussion after you watch this picture.
Sally Kirkland - AmazingApr 11, 2011
By Brent Roske
I've had the pleasure of working with Oscar nominee and Golden Globe winning actress Sally Kirkland on my project 'African Chelsea' (screening at Cannes). She is an amazing person and talent. In 'Anna' she really shines -
Sally Kirkland at her bestMay 08, 2009
By jojodelk
"Anna" is the perfect vehicle for Sally Kirkland to absolutely shine in. If you check her filmography on imdb, you'll see what a workhorse of an actress this woman, is. This film contains one of her very best performances. She portrays Anna, who is living in exile in NY; after having been imprisoned just after the invasion of Czechoslavakia in 1968. Anna had been a Czech film star of considerable fame before that event.
In NY, present day, Anna is a struggling stage actress. When a young Czech girl, Krystyna comes to America to find "Anna", her heroine, the story gets its teeth. Paulina Porizkova also turns in a good performance, but true to the spirit of the film, the chemistry between Kirkland and Porizkova is the most fascinating element.
Anna and her lover teach Krystyna english, and help her start her own career as an actress. Krystyna's presence in Anna's life causes her to reflect upon her own life and choices.
By the final scene of the movie, you'll find yourself on the edge of your emotional seat. It's not your usual "aging actress / ingenue" scenario. I recommend this film to anyone who enjoys studying women in film. Sally Kirkland leaves her mark with this one.
