只是摇滚

It's Only Rock'n' Roll

滚石乐队的代表性纪录片包括《给我庇护》《混蛋布鲁斯》和《女士们先生们:滚石乐队》。《给我庇护》提供了无数关于60年代终结反乌托邦的陈词滥调。《混蛋布鲁斯》延续了后台音乐片的标准架构,简洁而神秘,并同外部边缘小众的东西相联系。《女士们先生们》则更像一部奇观电影而不是摇滚电影,它把自己表现为演唱会的电影版。自此滚石的电影把摇滚呈现为绝对的商品,它们不再拥有演唱会电影,而只有电影演唱会。

Representative documentaries of the Rolling Stones include Gimme Shelter, Cocksucker Blues and Gentleman: The Rolling Stones. Gimme Shelter furnished innumerable bromides about the dystopian ending of the’60s. Cocksucker Blues followed what had become the standard structure of the rock‘n’ roll backstage musical, brief and enigmatic, in connection with the alienated, something minority. Ladies and Gentleman is more completely spectacle than any previous rock‘n’roll film, the one that most entirely presents itself as a cinematic surrogate for a concert. From the point on, Stones’s cinema would present rock‘n’roll as sheer commodity, for the Stones there would be no more concert films, only filmed concerts.
