The Rolling
Stones are to be chronicled in a kaleidoscopic new film, Crossfire Hurricane,
that documents the key periods of their career and their incredible adventures.
The film will be broadcast live by satellite to cinemas from the London Film
Festival on Thursday 18 October and include live coverage from the red carpet
before the film screening begins.
Directed by Brett Morgen, the film features historical
footage, much of it widely unseen, and commentary from Mick Jagger, Keith
Richards, Charlie Watts, Ronnie Wood and former Stones Bill Wyman and Mick
Taylor. Period interviews, extensive live performance material and news archive
footage will complete the documentary, which takes its title from the opening
lines of Jumpin' Jack Flash.
