Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary Celebrated With Documentary

03/16/2012
. (Gibson) They may not be touring this year, but The Rolling Stones have other plans, as the gents have revealed plans to unleash a new documentary that will highlight every period of their career, right from their humble beginnings in 1962 up to this year's 50th anniversary celebration, according to Rolling Stone.

The flick, which has yet to claim a title, will be directed by The Kid Stays in the Picture director Brett Morgen and executive produced by the Stones. Look for it to debut at the rockers' 50th anniversary celebration in September. "For anyone who wants to experience the band, this is the film that will defy convention and create a sonic tapestry to transport viewers into the world of The Rolling Stones," Morgen said in a release. "The film will deliver the original, bold, sexy and dangerous flavor of the iconic rock band."

The documentary also promises dollops of never-before-seen shots from the band's lost stashes and personal archives. "Nobody has put the story together as a narrative," Morgen told Rolling Stone. "We've been looking under every rock going through their archives. It will be music never heard before, and I've conducted 50-plus hours of interviews so far. By the time we're done, they will be the most extensive group interviews they've ever done. more on this story
