July 20: Shine A Light
For over 40 years, the Rolling Stones have
been playing rock and roll to sell-out crowds around the world. That's quite a feat in a business where you're
only as good as your last album. Who better than renowned director Martin Scorsese to make a concert documentary
about them? His 1978 film The Last Waltz about The Band's farewell concert remains a classic today. Although there
is some archival footage in the film, Scorsese's intent isn't to tell the story of the Stones, but let you hear
them and see their on-stage interactions. Shot with 18 cameras, it's something to behold.
