698765	2008-08-19 20:46:00	Hi, has anybody seen this doco movie about the Stones. I saw a clip of it and what I saw did not impress. It showed Keith Richards hunched over playing guitar with a fag hanging out of his mouth, blowing smoke, looking like a dead man walking, almost looked childish. Dont think I will bother going to see it. Any comments?	royaloaks (8205)

Just going to sort of close it around him and the guitar once he dies (they'll know he's dead because the cigarette will go out....forever....)	Deane F (8204)

I believe that you should quit while you are still good looking and still playing great music. Why would you want to be remembered as Keith Richard is now? John Cleese had the right idea with "Fawlty Towers." He did not want anyone to compare later episodes with those first twelve. They were great! He wanted them all to be remembered as the best. So, I don't think that I would want to see the film unless the Stones were played by young and vibrant actors as they were then. Quit while you're ahead. Quit while you're on top.	Roscoe (6288)

He wanted them all to be remembered as the best. That's what they all say when various plans to make more episodes or a film fizzle out :D After about 140 reviews for "Shine a Light" Rotten Tomatoes averaged the score as 7.4/10 ie better than 95% of anything on Sky.

You'll hear sniffles, snorts and heavy breathing along with bad echoes, missed musical cues, muffed lyrics, buzzing fret noises and amplifier cords getting kicked from under the feet . That's what makes them the greatest semi-pro garage band of the century . Old rockers . . rock . . . not fade away . . . because it's only rock 'n roll and time is on their side .	SurferJoe46 (51)
