Kids Are Alright, The (1979): One of the best music docos ever made
Tommy (1975): Fantastic music, but the whole movie is like a clollection of MTV videos joined together.
Hail, Hail Rock 'n' Roll (1987): Good Chuck Berry performances with many guests invited.rnKeith Richards keeps it all together musically as band leader and also keeps Chuck in check,…no sudden key changes etc..
Gimme Shelter (1970): Historic document of infamous concert at Altamount speedway. I think the Stones and, especially Mick Jagger were glad to finish the concert and quickly get out of the area.
When You're Strange: A Film About the Doors (2009): Always loved the Doors…good movie for fans and others
Cafe Society (2016): Enjoyable enough…minor Allen. K. Stew quite good in this
Panic Room (2002): Enjoyable suspencer
Ghost World (2001): Two female leads wonderful. Steve Bucsemi great as nerdy record clollector. All round excellent movie
Killing, The (1956): One of Kubrick good early films.
Helter Skelter (1976): Steve Railback is fantastic. A good movie of events that unfolded around the Tate/La Bianca murders and the lengthly court.
