Released in Finland by Nordisk with Finnish / Swedish subtitles by Timo Porri /Saliven Gustavson. Viewed in Tennispalatsi 5, Helsinki, 30 May 2008. - Heavy digital video look. - My favourite numbers in this concert film: "She Was Hot", "All Down The Line", "Champagne And Reefer". The Rolling Stones are in very good form in this film, they built a momentum, and they don't hide their age. Visually it's no treat on a big screen, and Scorsese is not one of the best directors of live concerts (my favourite: David Mallet), although for him filming the Stones is certainly a labour of love.
