Extraordinary film
18 October 2023
This is unlike any documentary bio pic of a singer I have ever seen. From the way the filmmakers have layered the extraordinarily honest revelations that Joan Baez offers of herself with the startling reminders of her piercing soprano at age 28, and our own history as a country and the ways in which Joan Baez has linked her life to that history, the viewer is mesmerized. Within all that is the story of a family : a handsome and smart Quaker couple with three beautiful and talented daughters who both got along with each other; and did not; the story of whose accomodations with each other beg for another film.
