The thing that should strike you most as you watch this film is the fact that Linda Ronstadt never stopped challenging herself, and she always succeeded. She changed genres several times, she challenged herself with singing a foreign language, she tried stage acting, and she revitalized lost gems that were considered "elevator music." She removed herself from her comfort zone many times, and she could have fallen straight on her face. But she did it anyway. She is one of the boldest musicians ever. As people state in the film, any one of the things that I listed could have damned her to obscurity forever because the general public also doesn't like to leave *its* comfort zone with a known performer. They want the familiar hits and a familiar genre. Familiarity bored Linda. As she stated in the film, when she played the same songs in the same arenas time after time she could practically hear the guitar solo from last week echoing in the building. Boring. A true artist wants challenges. She is a true artist, and her life is well worth researching.
