Martin Scorsese’s Rolling Stones concert pic “Shine a Light” will open the Berlin Film Festival on Feb. 7 with the director and band in attendance.Source: Variety
Scorsese captured the Stones during gigs at Gotham’s Beacon Theater on Oct. 29 and Nov. 1, 2006. The two concerts include guest performances from Jack White of the White Stripes, Christina Aguilera and Buddy Guy.”
As a matter of history, founder of Atlantic Records Ahmet Ertegun died on 12/14/06 due to injuries suffered from a fall backstage during the 10/29 show at the Beacon. Ahmet's death led to the organization of a tribute concert that featured the reunion of Led Zeppelin last month. These Stones shows were also billed as a 60th birthday party for former President Clinton.
Giving what Mr. Scorsese was able to do with the Last Waltz, I'm very excited to see this movie. According to imdb, 'Shine A Light' will be released in the States on 4/4/08.
