Martin Scorsese leaps into the madness of the Rolling Stones’ organization in Shine a Light, barely controlling (in a most entertaining way) a documentary that culminates in the Stones’ best concert on film. The movie’s highly entertaining, pre-performance prologue finds a frazzled Scorsese trying to get a clue about the band’s plans for a very special New York City date in 2006, a benefit hosted by Bill and Hillary Clinton. While Mick Jagger quibbles over concepts for the stage’s set and peruses lists of possible songs to include in the show, Scorsese tries to figure out how to shoot something for which he has few production details. Everything falls into place eventually, and after an extraordinary meet-and-greet scene in which Jagger, Keith Richards, Ron Wood, and Charlie Watts catch up with the Clintons and sweetly introduce themselves to Hillary’s mom, the Stones launch into a set that leans less heavily than usual on their greatest hits canon. Longtime fans are sure to appreciate the wealth of generally-untapped material from Let It Bleed ('You Got the Silver,' 'Live With Me'), Exile On Main Street ('All Down the Line,' 'Loving Cup'), and Some Girls ('Faraway Eyes,' 'Just My Imagination'). Jack White, Christina Aguilera, and Buddy Guy are on hand for memorable collaborations, but the Stones all alone are truly on fire in the relatively intimate setting of a small theater. Among the highlights is a sexy and even thrilling call-and-response between Jagger and ace backup singer Lisa Fischer on 'She Was Hot,' Richards’ gracious and expansive solo on 'Connection,' and Jagger’s witty take on 'Some Girls' (which manages to skip over the controversial verse about 'black girls'). Throughout the show, Scorsese and an army of camera operators cover the action from every conceivable angle, which results not so much in another hyperkinetic concert film but rather in the kind of graceful, flattering portrayal of a great band that the director mastered with The Last Waltz. --Tom Keogh

I'll give them credit for longivity, but if I were just hearing and seeing them for the first time wow what a let down.I remember the song titles and words from their prime but this is a waste of money. I've seen them live and own most of their works but again this is not good.

As you would expect, Martin Scorsese has made a great film of a Stones concert. The cinematography is very good, the featurettes are interesting as are the old recorded interviews (although older Stones fans, like me, will have seen them all before in decades past). However, what makes this film outstanding is the sound quality; it's so much better than in other DVDs of their concerts that I own. You can crank it up if you want to rock out but you can also pick out subtle remarks between the players, ... Read More
