Mick Jagger: My Life As a Rolling Stone review – the singer would ... (The Guardian)

Jagger starts the film telling us how he despises the exact rock mythology this cliche-ridden show indulges in. Worse still, it fails to ask difficult ...

To fail to address such questions is a missed opportunity not least because Jagger is clearly articulate and not so caught up in his own myth as to be unable to think self-critically. “They’re a link,” she adds, “between the counterculture of the 60s and the commercial modern world.” After a peerless guitar intro, Jagger strikes up thus: “Gold Coast slave ship bound for cotton fields / Sold in the market down in New Orleans / Skydog slaver know he’s doin’ all right / Hear him whip the women, just around midnight.” It’s as if the song were by not Jagger and Richards but the songwriting duo Edward Colston and Harvey Weinstein. It doesn’t. Right after Jagger indicts what documentaries do, this documentary does it once more with such a cataclysm of cliches that for a moment I hope the writer is having us on. It sounds, not just like problematically heteronormative essentialism, but also the kind of mythological hokum that Jagger himself says has dogged the Stones in their 60 years at the coal face of rock’n’roll. “He projects the wild animal that’s in all of us,” says record producer Don Was, one of the many musicians contributing their thoughts, if that’s not too strong a word.

MICK JAGGER was devastated when his girlfriend of over a decade and acclaimed designer L'Wren Scott tragically took her life in 2014.

If you are struggling and have suicidal thoughts, know you are not alone and that help is available. “She had a great presence and her talent was very much admired, not least by me. The Rolling Stones have been out in force, just last week headlining British Summer Time festival at Hyde Park, and will again take to the stage tomorrow. Lifeline is a national charity providing all Australians experiencing a personal crisis with access to 24-hour crisis support and suicide prevention services. I have been touched by the tributes that people have paid to her and also the personal messages of support that I have received. Scott had cancelled her London fashion Week show at the last minute, and some close friends noted she had been avoiding phone calls the week prior to her death.

Mick Jagger: My Life as a Rolling Stone review, BBC Two - the rock ... (The Arts Desk)

Impressive archive footage but no new insights. TV review by Adam Sweeting.

Jagger’s own interview is a shrewd survey of the band’s history given a bit of waspish spin. The film is the first of a quartet, the others being about Keith Richards, Ronnie Wood and the sorely-missed drummer Charlie Watts. Watts aside, they do at least contain new interviews with their subjects, who are all reliably entertaining and about as revealing as you’d expect them to be. This latest attempt to prise open the enigma of the Rolling Stones’ indefatigable frontman reveals nothing a reasonably observant Stones fan won’t already know.
