The Museum of Modern art is getting in on the never ending and anti climatic Rolling Stones 50th Anniversary. The Rolling Stones: 50 Years on Film, a retrospective running November 15 to December 2, 2012 is sure to bring the huddled masses to New York.
This retrospective chronicles the band from the mid-1960s until today through documentaries, fiction features, concert films, music videos, experimental shorts, and archival footage, tracing the film careers of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts and Ronnie Wood, as well as former band members Brian Jones, Mick Taylor and Bill Wyman.
