Examines the California singer/songwriter movement of the early 1970s, as seen through the eyes of two of its brightest lights: Carole King and James Taylor. Intimately tracking King and Taylor's artistic developments and enduring partnership, the film also interweaves the intriguing story of the 'world famous' Troubadour club that cemented their musical legacy. Run by a mercurial impresario named Doug Weston, the Troubadour was, for a time, the premier launching pad for the likes of King, Taylor, and other soon-to-be-boldfaced names: Jackson Browne; Elton John; Kris Kristofferson; David Crosby; even Steve Martin and Cheech & Chong. But 'Troubadors' also chronicles the dark side of the burgeoning L.A. music industry, evinced by hard drugs, critical opprobrium, and the eventual decay of the Troubadour itself.
Leave your thoughts about Troubadours.
| The New York TimesStephen HoldenThe enjoyable, lightweight Troubadours is a musical scrapbook that throws together a bit of this and a bit of that. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranFor with songs like "You Can Close Your Eyes," "You've Got a Friend" and numerous others on the soundtrack, this is finally a film hard not to enjoy. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyAn infectiously fond look at a mellow moment in rock history. |
| Boxoffice MagazinePam GradyAn amiable endeavor, if something of a puff piece. |
| New York Daily NewsElizabeth WeitzmanSo maybe this movie should serve as his introduction to a larger series, in which each artist gets the individual portrait Neville so clearly wants them all to have. |
| The Hollywood ReporterDavid RooneyDirector Morgan Neville does an adequate job in retracing the explosion of singer-songwriter talent out of West Hollywood's legendary Troubadour club, but makes a bad choice by starting now, not then. |
| Village VoiceAaron HillisThe film is entertaining but hardly penetrating. |
| Portland OregonianShawn LevyIt's woeful as a documentary history -- a real missed opportunity. |
| Movie HabitMarty MapesFans of James Taylor and Carole King rejoice |
| Time OutDavid FearIt's such a haphazard, absent-minded history lesson that you'd think the filmmakers had ingested some of the era's pharmaceuticals before concocting this tribute. |
