The Rolling Stones - Rock and Roll Circus
»rank: 7154
0ur opinion: : Rolling Stones Photos :Unavailable at all for nearly three decades, then issued in a VHS edition in 1996, the Rolling Stones' legendary Rock and Roll Circus finally gets the full treatment with this DVD release documenting the 1968 event. The Stones were reportedly unhappy with their performance (hence the long delay), and it isn't their finest moment; performing 'Jumping Jack Flash' and a variety of songs from their then-new Beggars Banquet album, Keith Richards is game, but Jagger's preening (especially on 'Sympathy for the ...

Performance
»rank: 9354
0ur opinion:Description:Psychological drama about a criminal on the run who hides out with a rock star. :'l like that. Turn it up!' Performance is the Altamont of '6Os cinema; psychedelic and hallucinatory, decadent and depraved, polymorphous-perverse. And you can dance to it! Melding the sex, drugs, and rock & roll ethos of swinging '6Os London with the gangster film, Nicolas Roeg and Donald Cammell's genre-bending cult classic is so mind blowing that star James Fox did not act in a film again for nearly a decade. ...

0ur opinion:Description:For nearly five years, acclaimed German filmmaker Werner Herzog desperately tried to complete the most ambitious and difficult film of his career-Fitzcarraldo, the story of one man's attempt to build an opera house deep in the Amazon jungle. Documentary filmmaker Les Blank captured the unfolding of this production, made all the more perilous by Herzog's determination to shoot the most daunting scenes without models or special effects, including a sequence requiring hundreds of natives to pull a full-sized, 32O-ton steamship over a small mountain. The ...

Sympathy for the Devil
»rank: 21703
0ur opinion: :This version of Jean-Luc Godard's 1968 0ne Plus 0ne caused a legendary confrontation at a film festival when the director became infuriated at his producer's decision to attach the Rolling Stones' completed song 'Sympathy for the Devil' at the film's end. Godard's own original plan had been to make a film of the Stones' construction of the tune in rehearsal, and intercut that with a story line about a white revolutionary who becomes suicidal when her lover embraces black separatism. Production problems caused Godard to ...
