Shed Some 'Light'

Monday, March 31, 2008

Martin Scorsese used the Rolling Stones' music in films throughout his career, from his debut "Mean Streets" to last year's Best Picture Oscar winner, "The Departed". His latest film is "Shine a Light," which documents the band's 2006 appearance at the Beacon Theater. Before the film opens this weekend, we get a sneak preview.
