"This event cinema presentation offers a chance to see one of the two tribute concerts held last November in Los Angeles to honour Joni Mitchell. The revered singer-songwriter, now 75, fully deserves to be feted by an eclectic lineup of artists channelling her music. Fans should be warned, however, that although she can be seen here in occasional cutaways enjoying the show - and younger versions of her pop up in archive clips, photos and painted self-portraits - because of ill health she no longer performs.So viewers have to make do with arresting, occasionally straight-up but mostly fascinating reinterpretations of Mitchell's songs, performed by guest singers and an all-star house band".
