Sympathy for the Devil (DVD)
Jean-Luc Godard`s SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL is an exhilarating, provocative pastiche of a motion picture, which can actually be viewed as two movies in one. In the first, rock and roll superstars The Rolling Stones rehearse a new song, Sympathy For the Devil, which would become one of rock and roll`s most powerful in a London studio. In the second, a series of abstract fictional vignettes allows Godard to probe topics as diverse as Black Power, pornography, and the irony of interviewing celebrities. These extended sequences elevate the film above a simple portrait of the English rockers, constructing an intimate examination of the cultural and political movments of the 1960s. It is also a fascinating study of the intellectual aesthetic that Godard developed towards the end of the decade. Still, the reason worth watching SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL is to see the band--Mick Jagger, Keith Richard, Brian Jones, Charlie Watts, and Bill Wyman--take a loose outline of a song and turn it into a stirring, fully realized creation. Beginning as a ballad, the track gradually acquires a pulsating groove, which gets Jagger into a rousing vocal display of soulful emotion that Godard is lucky enough to capture on film. Showing that rock and roll is more than just partying and goofing off, SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL is a brilliant portrait of the creative process at its most collaborative and arousing.NR"
