Anna, Nana, Nana, Anna (2019) dir. Mark Rappaport

I was a star waiting to be born. Anna Sten, actress in Russian silent films and early German sound films. She should become a star like Greta Garbo or Marlene Dietrich. Sam Goldwyn had that in mind with a lot of money and publicity. In 1934 Anna Sten has a leading role as Nana, the starting signal for a Hollywood career that never happened. ANNA, NANA, NANA, ANNA: actor name, role, film title, novel. How many nanas did we see on the screen And with what meaning is the name Nana now charged From Anna Stens Nana to Anna Karinas Nana S. in Godards VIVRE SA VIE things are going badly for all Nanas.
