Linda Ronstadt: The Sound Of My Voice

It's been a year of music docs. David Cosby, Elton John, Bob Dylan, to name just a few artists whose stories have come to the big screen. Maybe, like the Movie Slut, you think you've reached your saturation point.

Well, think again. MS is sure glad she did. This doc is rich with the music that brought Ronstadt ten Grammy Awards, three American Music Awards, two Academy of Country Music Awards, an Emmy, and an ALMA. But that's not all. How can you not love a doc with talking heads like Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Jackson Browne and Aaron Neville.

Ronstadt was a female pioneer in the male-dominated field of rock music. And a died-in-the-wool feminist, by deed, rather than words. As her awards indicate, she was also a star in the country music genre, light opera, and Mexican music.

Although she no longer sings, Ronstadt narrates parts of the film that reveals she's much more than a pretty face and a beautiful voice.
