Summary

This riveting documentary covers the Rolling Stone’s 1969 concert tour, culminating in an infamous free concert. Just as the Stones were the ‘60’s doppelganger for the Beatles, so too was Altamont Woodstock’s dark and twisted twin. This is a sadly apt and violent elegy to a decade of social upheaval.
