‘They Shot the Piano Player’ mixes fact, a little fiction and beautiful design work in story about the disappearance of '70s keyboardist Francisco Tenório Júnior
Attention, fans of samba, bossa nova and ambitious nonfiction/fiction hybrids, animated division: Here is a clear choice for worthwhile moviegoing. “They Shot the Piano Player” investigates the short life and 1976 disappearance and likely political assassination of Brazilian jazz keyboardist Francisco Tenório Júnior, a revered if spottily known figure in the realm of jazz. The film comes from Spanish director Fernando Trueba, here co-directing once again with artist Javier Mariscal.
Jeff Goldblum, an identifiable performer if ever there was one, provides the voice of the journalist researching Tenório’s influence and disappearance. It’s a true if foggy story big enough to encompass many friends, relatives, children and admirers — along with material highlighting the U.S. role in various Latin American coups and dictatorial regimes.
