Related: About this forum"Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice" - opened in theaters Sept 6
Greenwich Entertainment, 1091 and CNN Films present a documentary directed by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman. Rated PG-13 (for brief strong language and drug material). Running time: 95 minutes. Opens Friday at local theaters.
With the release of Linda Ronstadt: The Sound of My Voice, 2019 has given us enough documentaries about 1960s and 1970s pop icons to fill a mini film festival.
And the good news is, like Echo in the Canyon and Rolling Thunder Revue and David Crosby: Remember My Name, this is a well-crafted and invaluable time capsule tribute to one of the most distinctive artists of a Golden Age of pop music.
Directed in capable, straightforward fashion by Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman, and featuring voice-over narration from the artist herself, The Sound of My Voice is like a well-sourced and thorough video Wikipedia entry about the life and times of the now 73-year-old Ronstadt.

Excellent!!!! Who knew? We heard the powerhouse vocals, saw the sweetness and passionate nature, but I never knew she was such a warrior woman. She definitely did it all her own way! This is a must see, and typical of the excellent documentary work delivered by CNN Films. Bravo Linda!
The best film Ive seen in many years. Definitely the best documentary ever! You will fall in love with Lindas authenticity and grace as much as with her music. This film is loaded with footage from concerts and the recording studio.
