Village Voice by

De Almeida's latest hagiographic effort diminishes Amália's legend by purifying it.

New York Post by Jonathan Foreman

It's hardly a dramatic story. You learn absolutely nothing about her personal life. But there is plenty of drama in that amazing, soulful voice and the songs she sang.
