Richard Branson To Make Exile On Main Street Movie
by PAUL CASHMERE on APRIL 29, 2012
Entrepreneur Richard Branson has acquired the rights to the book ‘Exile On Main Street: A Season In Hell With The Rolling Stones’ and will adapt the story for the big screen.

The Robert Greenfield book, first published in 2006, deals with the turbulent relationship between Mick Jagger and Keith Richards during the recording on the classic 1972 Stones album in France.’

The story begins in April 1971 when the Rolling Stones became tax exiles and left England to live in France. Richards leased the mansion Villa NellCôte on the Côte d’Azur. It became headquarters for the recording of the album.

Villa NellCôte was a 16-room house built in 1850 and used as Gestapo headquarters during World War II.

It was a crazy time for the Stones. Keith Richards and his girlfriend were heroin addicts, guests such as William S. Burroughs and Gram Parsons would casually drop by and Mick Jagger met and married Bianca Perez-Mora Macias that same year.

The screen play is currently being written by Brandon and Philip Murphy. The last script ‘The Last Drop’ was recently picked up for production by Mandate Pictures.

I don't know about this guys. You know up front that it'll fail to live up to the expectations of Stones fans who simply read, listened, talked and speculated so much and so long about this era. Even if it's good. So that makes me hesitant instead of happy.

The only biopics I liked were the ones about people I'm only casually interested in. Others - Nixon, The Doors, Walk The Line - were certainly not bad films yet they annoyed me big time. So I'm not saying this shouldn't happen, but it'll be nicer for the people who just know the warhorses.

Boring post

I enjoyed STONED although it was mostly inaccurate. There was enough sex and drugs and rock and roll to keep it interesting.

Don't know about the Rock & Roll part, The Stones didn't allow any of their music in that one, in fact they used songs that were written by other people (like Little Red Rooster) I guess The Stones didn't endorse it at all.

The Rolling Stones ain't just a group, their a way of life-Andrew Loog Oldham.

It could go wrong in a hundred different ways. The worst being a making of Exile movie that the Stones do not allow the music to be used for.
