In Autumn 2006, after months of planning, Martin Scorsese captured the Rolling Stones on stage for Shine a Light.
No stranger to rock concert films (The Last Waltz), Scorsese filmed the Stones over a two-day period at the Beacon Theater in New York City.
Bringing remarkable performances live in to your living room from Jack White of the White Stripes, Christina Aguilera and Buddy Guy, integrated with rarely seen archival footage, Shine a Light glows even brighter on DVD.
For this intimate concert Scorsese assembled an award-winning camera team to capture the raw energy of the world’s greatest rock ‘n roll band including Oscar-winning cinematographer Robert Richardson (The Aviator, JFK) who supervised the camera team in the auditorium, which included several highly acclaimed Directors Of Photography: Stuart Dryburgh (The Piano, The Painted Veil), Robert Elswit (Magnolia, Good Night and Good Luck), Ellen Kuras (Summer Of Sam, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), John Toll (The Last Samurai, Braveheart), Emmanuel Lubezki (Children Of Men, Sleepy Hollow) and Andrew Lesnie (Lord Of The Rings Trilogy, King Kong). The film was edited by David Tedeschi, who worked with Scorsese on the acclaimed Bob Dylan documentary, No Direction Home: Bob Dylan.
Shine a Light will also be available as a 1 disc DVD and a premium Blu-ray edition on 10th November.
