More2Screen to Distribute Rolling Stones Crossfire Hurricane Live Cinema Event to Digital Cinemas Worldwide
More2Screen is delighted to announce that it has been appointed by Eagle Rock Entertainment to distribute the new Rolling Stones’ film, Crossfire Hurricane, to cinemas worldwide (ex–US) on Thursday 18 October. The film will be broadcast LIVE by satellite from the worldwide premiere at the London Film Festival and will include live footage from the red carpet before the film screening begins.
Crossfire Hurricane, directed by Brett Morgen, provides a remarkable new perspective on the Stones’ unparalleled journey from blues-obsessed teenagers in the early 60s to rock royalty for almost five decades. The film combines extensive historical footage, much of it widely unseen, with contemporary commentaries by Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, Charlie Watts, Ronnie Wood and former Stones, Bill Wyman and Mick Taylor. Period interviews, extensive live performance material and news archive give the production a truly kinetic aura and no-holds-barred approach.
Christine Costello, Managing Director at More2Screen comments: “More2Screen is privileged to distribute this momentous Rolling Stones film to our digital cinema partners worldwide. With the addition of the ‘live from the red carpet’ footage this will be a fantastic rock n’ roll live cinema event for the new autumn season.”
Andrew Winter of Eagle Rock Entertainment said: “We’re delighted to be working with More2Screen once again on the theatrical release of Crossfire Hurricane. It is fitting to celebrate The Rolling Stones’ 50 years in music by sharing this worldwide premiere event with the band’s fans across the world.”
A recorded version of the film will be available to cinemas on DCP from late November 2012.
