- Synopsis:
As a schoolboy aged 14, Nick Broomfield met Brian Jones, by chance, on a train. Brian was at the height of his success, with the world at his feet, but just six years later, he would be dead. This film takes a look at the relationships and rivalries within The Rolling Stones in their formative years, exploring the iconoclastic freedom and exuberance of the 60s, a time of intergenerational conflict and sexual turmoil that reflects on the present day. Featuring revealing interviews with all the main players and unseen archive released for the first time, this documentary explores the creative musical genius of Jones, key to the success of the band, and uncovers how the founder of what became the greatest rock 'n' roll band in the world was left behind in the shadows of history. - Actors:

Remember the past. - The Stones and Brian Jones review by EMJAY
Yes, now in my 80s I remember only too well what it was all about. How the whole world was changing, well the West anyway. The east already had the drugs, cannabis etc., and we followed them.
It was a time of freedom, a time of difference, a time of beauty. I remember my parents decrying the noise, not music, noise, yet within a couple of years they were singing along quite happily to it. It really was freedom.
This film had so much memory for me that after I watched it, went on line, and purchased it from Amazon. There are very few documentaries that have done that to me but this one is so honest about the era. It's well worth a 92 minutes of any ones time..
Thank you CinemaParadiso.
