Wokkai Nadia Comaneci is without a doubt one of the most influential people I have ever discovered in my life. She became a source of inspiration very early in my life and continues to inspire me to this day. Now to the point.To all those who think this movie portrays Nadia attempting suicide, watch it again.It clearly show that she picks up the wrong cup (with her foot, mind you), by mistake, as she had two cups right next to each other on the table, one with bleach, and the other with juice.Having read her autobiography as well, I can report that this is also well documented in there. So there are no "fake" contents in this movie. I actually found it was a thoroughly accurate account of the life of Nadia up until the after the 1980 Moscow Olympics.Having cleared that up , this is a brilliant movie, which I have watched time and time again, and it never gets old. All those with even a passing fancy of gymnastics should see it, and those who are fans of Nadia should definitely see it. There are not many movies about gymnastics out there, and apart from "Stick It", this is probably the only other decent one I have ever seen.

shobha aradhya I had seen this movie when it was released in India first time. I was studying in school. The whole school went to the theater by walk around 5-6 kilometer to watch this movie. Though I do not remember the whole story, its an excellent and inspirational movie. I just remember the climax and a few scene from this movie, Recently one of my friend was talking about our school days and this movie. We felt watching this movie and make our kids also see this movie. We enquired nearby shops but could not get the movie. We requested those persons also to check for the availability but still we could not. Is there any link where I can purchase this movie online or download this movie? Or torrent download?Regards, Aradhya

Aldo L I was 10 years old when I saw this movie for the first time. That was back in those days before cable TV, so the norm was to show each film only once. A reprise might come next year or so. But this little movie broke a record in my country: It was first aired on a Monday evening, and everybody was talking about it at school the next morning. Then we heard that due to viewers' positive phone calls to our local TV channel, they will be airing it again on Wednesday. So everybody saw it again two days later. You have to understand what was going on in the head of us children, addicted to sports as we were at that young age, thinking in the possibility of achieving world sport stardom even if you come from some obscure town somewhere in a little known country. Then, by the end of that week, that I remember as one of my major memories from fifth grade, there was once again a TV spot, almost a minute long, this time just showing a Nadia Comaneci's routine in slow motion, she literally flying, with a triumphant music theme in the background, and the announcer went like this: "This Sunday afternoon, for the first time in the history of Paraguayan TV, and due to overwhelming viewers' request, a movie will be aired for the third time in the same week". Still to these days, 24 years later, no other movie was ever aired again three times in the same week on a free air TV channel. That says it all!

smile_270 I really enjoyed the movie Nadia. I am 13 years old and have always wanted to be a gymnast. The movie Nadia really showed how hard and how much effort you had to put into gymnastics, and also how Nadia got to the top. It was a very informative and interesting movie
