Monterey Rock
GFT
A film about the greatest pre-Woodstock rock music festival
Sunday 14 August (17.45)
Running time: 1h19m
Before he created his timeless and lengthy chronicle of Woodstock, D.A. Pennebaker documented the titular 3-day music festival that took place in 1967 San Francisco and featured performances from Ravi Shankar, The Mamas and Papas, Simon & Garfunkel, Janis Joplin, Otis Redding and Jimi Hendrix (who performs a literally incendiary set). One of the most influential concert films ever made, Pennebaker gives audiences the chance to view these legendary acts like they are discovering them for the very first time.
Director DA Pennebaker, USA 1968, 1h19m, N/C 15+
