After exploring the careers of
the Band and
Bob Dylan in
The Last Waltz and
No Direction Home: Bob Dylan, respectively, acclaimed director
Martin Scorsese turns his lens on
rock & roll legends
the Rolling Stones for this feature focusing on two concerts from the band's 2006
A Bigger Bang tour. In addition to extensive coverage of the band's two-night stand at New York's
Beacon Theater (an engagement that was staged as part of
President Bill Clinton's lavish birthday bash), the film also features historical footage, interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage from decades past. Oscar-winning cinematographer
Robert Richardson (
JFK and
The Aviator) supervised photography for the film, with an impressive array of A-list talents, including
Andrew Lesnie,
John Toll,
Ellen Kuras,
Anastas Michos,
Stuart Dryburgh,
Declan Quinn,
Emmanuel Lubezki,
Robert Elswit, and
Albert Maysles, stepping in to insure that the
Beacon performances were covered from every angle possible.
