Well, hello there, kind folks. If you’re visiting this blog of mine, I presume that you have a certain interest in the cinema. As for me, even since my early childhood, I have had a deep love of everything related to movies and television. As far as I can remember, I have been more at ease in front of a screen than in the yard, outside, playing. It is a great way to travel, though other people’s stories, without having to foot any kind of steep bill. Over the years, I feel that movie-watching has even fuelled my own creativity.

All that being said, I welcome you in my Cinephile’s Nest. I hope you enjoy it here, feel free to come back at any time. Here you will find reviews of current movies and older ones. TV shows also. Some classics that have remained some of my favourites, some that have disappointed me. I will use a very basic star (*) system to grade them from 1 to 5 (5 being sliced bread level). Remember, these are just my tastes. I will try to explain in each review what I liked about these particular movies, without giving spoilers.

Il y aura aussi des critiques en français pour les films francophones, car j'aime également le cinéma dans ma langue maternelle. Avant d'apprendre l'anglais, plus jeune, je louais des tonnes de films traduits en français, surtout ceux de Bud Spencer et Terrence Hill. Ma mère a eu le choc de sa vie lorsqu'un jour, dans la boîte d'un de ces films, Deep Throat avait malencontreusement inséré. Une expérience formatrice pour le jeune cinéphile que je suis.

Bienvenue à tous, amusez-vous bien.

I welcome you all here, enjoy yourself.

The Rolling Stones: Sticky Fingers Live at the Fonda Theatre 2015 (2017)

Genre: Musical
Directed by: Paul Dugdale
Cast: Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Ron Wood
Running time: 96 minutes

 

Live on stage at the Fonda Theatre, in Los Angeles, California, The Rolling Stones debuted a tour celebrating the release of their iconic album Sticky Fingers. Over the course of more than an hour, they performed all ten songs on that recording plus a few more. In between the songs, there were excepts of interviews with the four members of the band discussing the recording of that album and the music that came out of it.

I love the Stones. It is without a doubt my favorite band. Here, while they were not as tight as they can be on stage, they still had great energy and presence. The music was great, though I would have taken a few more songs from outside the Sticky Fingers album.
