There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

She complains that she got "a shot of cortisone in her f-ing ass" just so she could perform, and apologizes for her voice, but boy does she ever sound great! Vocals maybe, were not as on as in The Isle of View, but she sings "I'll Stand By You," "Brass in Pocket," "Don't Get Me Wrong," "Kid," and other hits beautifully. She rocks out with "Middle of the Road," "Night in My Veins," "My City Was Gone," and others like the rock star that she is! There's a great guitar solo in "Fools Must Die," and a charming screw-up at the beginning of "Nothing Breaks Like A Heart," but it's great, really. It does take her a few songs to warm up and get comfortable with the crowd, and it could do with some more talk (also the director seems to forget that there is a bass player in the band because Andy Hobson doesn't get much camera time), but the music, vocals, and entertainment is very good. Martin Chambers is "entertaining" during a couple numbers, and if you like Chrissie Hynde, you'll love the DVD.
