Have been WAITING for this....❤❤❤

You Got the Silver is the perfect evocation of Anita! 🤩

So's All About You, at the end🙃

[@skipp10467]

Can’t wait to see this!

[@missyjordan909]

Do you know when and where ? 🎉

[@georgeredhawk1996]

It’s on Apple TV. I’m going to watch it when I can find the time.

[@TheMysteryMachine]

id crawl over broken glass for twenty miles to see this.

[@aidanoleary5143]

It was the girlfriends like both Anita and Marianne Faithfull that were the power behind the Stones. Looking forward to seeing this.

[@terri6854]

Exaggerate much? They provided inspiration for some songs.

[@JohnnyFriendly]

Rubbish. It was the Stones who were the power behind the stones, their imagination and their artistry. No one else's In fact if we were to continue this silly argument we could say that , for example, Dave Hassinger (producer of Aftermath) had much more impact and influence on the band. That doesn't sell celebrity magazines though

[@davecostello560]

Their influence was subtle but definitely there. Yes, beyond doubt their influence on the Stones' fashion sense, but the two women also expanded their bohemian cosmopolitan outlook, in the same way Jane Asher and Pattie Boyd expanded the cultural palette of the Beatles.

[@storey8965]

I believe it was one of the engineers from one or more of the Stones’ albums who said “Anita IS the Stones” so, even though she didn’t write the songs she must have had a substantial influence on the band and the songs.

Such a icon! I love the fact Anita was who she was, she never apologized for that! Too much bs focuses on her personal issues, and not the fact she was not only one of the most incredible muses of the last century ,but such a phenomenal human being who lived on another dimensional plane! Anita started spiritual awareness before it was defined . Its never stated first and foremost that she was highly intelligent, she spoke nore languages? How many more than any member of the Rolling Stones, and had not only book knowledge but knowledge in SO many areas. She was a style icon and a actual human being! She gave birth to three children, she survived not one but 2 relationships with the two most hatdcore and creative men of ger time. Women leave relationships for other men each day, it isnt posted in the news! I have mad respect for her personally, i have lost and buried a child as well, i was a "junkie" for years, also have had relationships with musicians, but that shapes a persons character how?? It doesn't, unfortunately all her personal choice of the way she was chose to live her life was thrown on every newspaper. Embrace the definition of the word muse! I can not wait to experience this documentary and find the treasures shes left behind for all of us! She was so far ahead if her time and still is!

Where can we watch this in the US ?

[@AmyAlbert-xc7yi]

I think in early May.

[@Oakleaf700]

A very beautiful woman.

[@mikes2082]

She was absolutely gorgeous as seen in Stones in Exile...a real beauty!... Too bad she was passed around like a half smoked cigarette

[@Glindagood04]

Nope. She chose who she slept with. She would not have chosen you.

Yeah I don't understand why the need to do a movie about this woman?

[@Glindagood04]

Then don’t watch it.

Wrong.

[@Oakleaf700]

She was stunning in her youth, and pretty relevant to the Stones.

[@louissoto3056]

She was a groupie who managed to out last the many others, the Stones were never surrounded by quality women

[@sexobscura]

*Who cares whose girlfriend she was in the Stones, she was bloody good in 'Performance'*

[@chicklets4ever51]

She was great, you're right. Fantastic, natural actress.

[@Oakleaf700]

A beautiful woman with a lovely accent in that film. Powis Square, Notting Hill. All gentrified now.

@@Oakleaf700 You're correct about her, but exactly what place isn't gentrified now
