Rolling Stones Documentary; Keith Richards Is the New Face/Thing of Louis Vuitton
March 5, 2008It’s a slow Wednesday morning for Coquito Von Tito, and what purpose do I serve this universe if I didn’t infect you guys with the Lazy Bug and make you hate me in the process. So I’m going to smack you with a two-hit combo of really boring shit. You ready?
(POW!) A DOCUMENTARY!
(KA-POW!) ABOUT OLD PEOPLE!
Shine A Light, Martin Scorcese’s follow-up to his Oscar-winning opus "The Departed," is described as a "career-spanning documentary" on the legendary rock quartet, The Rolling Stones. The movie catches up with Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, and Ron Wood in the midst of their "A Bigger Bang Tour," with guest appearances by Bill and Hillary Clinton, Christina Aguilera, Jack White, and Scorcese himself. The film will also feature performance footage from the said tour.
Shine A Light premiered at the Berlin Film Festival back in February, and will gain wide release in multiple major territories on April 4, 2008.
But the big news today is that fashion stalwart Louis Vuitton has decided to follow their endorsement deals with Scarlett Johansson and Uma Thurman by signing 64 year-old Stones guitarist Keith Richards as the new face of their company.
Yes, really.
I can totally see the tagline: "Carry our bags and look like Death."
