The saga of the legendary Los Angeles band Little Feat is one of rock 'n' roll's great stories. Formed in 1969 by ex-members of Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention, Little Feat created groove-heavy music that was an irresistible mix of rock, blues, R&B, country, jazz, soul, and funk. Fronted by the charismatic but doomed vocalist and brilliant slide guitarist Lowell George, the band recorded such classic studio albums as Sailin' Shoes and Dixie Chicken, as well as Waiting for Columbus, which many consider to be one of the best live albums of all time.

"Vasco aveva già sentito parlare di Massimo, non perché fosse figlio di Giovanni e della Laura, amici di sua madre, amici di suo padre, amici di sua zia, di sua cugina e di chi sa chi altro, ma perché in paese si vociferava che fosse un bambino strano, solitario, che non andava all'asilo, che quando era a casa amava fare soprattutto una cosa, voleva fare sempre quella: ascoltare la musica." Pur essendo trascorsi vent'anni dalla sua morte, Massimo Riva continua a essere amatissimo: da quel maledetto 31 maggio 1999, Vasco Rossi non ha mai fatto un concerto senza ricordarlo.

"Sono nato circondato dall'amore, ma poi mi sono trovato immerso nel buio. Finché non ho ritrovato la luce dentro di me: la danza."

Due strade parallele, dritte e morbide come la serenità solare che le avvolge. Una macchina avanza piano con una barchetta a rimorchio, mentre in sottofondo si innalzano le voci di Jussi Björling e Renata Tebaldi che intonano "Tu qui santuzza". Vediamo mani che scelgono cd, sentiamo risate: una coppia sta giocando a chi indovina la canzone; il figlio, sul sedile dietro, è chiamato a fare da garante. Torniamo a vedere la macchina dall'alto; poi la telecamera ci mostra i volti della famiglia felice, in procinto di raggiungere la casa delle vacanze.

They've traded punches in knockdown brawls, crashed biplanes through barns, and raced to the rescue in fast cars. They add suspense and drama to the story, portraying the swimmer stalked by the menacing shark, the heroine dangling 20 feet below a soaring hot air balloon, or the woman leaping nine feet over a wall to escape a dog attack. Only an expert can make such feats of daring look easy, and stuntwomen with the skills to perform - and survive - great moments of action in movies have been hitting their mark in Hollywood since the beginning of film.
