Martin Scorsese's Rolling Stones Film Given Release Date

Director Martin Scorsese’s much anticipated film about the Rolling Stones, Shine A Light, is to open in cinemas on April 4th.

The film, which was shot over two days at the Beacon Theatre in New York in 2006, provides a live look at the band through Scorsese’s eyes.

It also includes backstage and rare archived footage, as well as new interviews with the band.

The band’s performances in New York were amongst some of the most intimate dates on their Bigger Bang tour and include guest appearances from Jack White and Christina Aguilera.

The film was originally scheduled for release last October but was postponed by Paramount Classics.
