20 Feet From Stardom is a terrific documentary on backup singers that have sung with some of music's greatest artists. This film features terrific interviews from famous backup singers that tell their story. These women are very talented, every one of them are far better than today's "artists". Yet, despite the fact they've been on multiple legendary recordings, they've always shied away from real fame. This is a must see for music lovers of all genres, and it is an in depth look at what they have accomplished. I really loved the film, and I think it's an important film as it showcases really talented singers that deserve to be recognized. In terms of documentary filmmaking, this film manages to get into its subject very well and be very engaging. I wish however, they would have made the film much longer. I think that they managed to cover a lot of ground with what the filmmakers were able to get on film, but, backup singers are a topic that needs a much longer film in order to really make it something memorable. The film is a very well executed documentary, but it does have its flaws. The most important part of the film is exposing the talent that these singers have, and bringing to light their legacy in the genre. For that, 20 Feet From Stardom delivers, but there are things that could have been improved upon as well. Still for any music lover, this is a must watch, and it showcases the talents of these women perfectly. 20 Feet From Stardom is a very good picture that should have been great. The only problem here is that it's short, and therefore it does a bit to be desired.
