Documentary tells the melancholy story of the model and actor at the centre of the 60s music industry but also weirdly peripheral to it
nita Pallenberg endured many things, including the condescension of being labelled “muse” to the Rolling Stones. She became the girlfriend of Brian Jones who abused her, married Keith Richards who neglected her and then co-starred in the movie Performance with Mick Jagger, who fell unrequitedly in love with her.
This film in fact contains some of the most chilling footage to be seen in any documentary: Richards playing live in Paris having just been told that their baby son Tara had died of cot death syndrome , but determined that the show should go on.
Near the end of her life, Pallenberg was hailed as an icon by Kate Moss who based her own look on Pallenberg’s 60s style. Maybe Pallenberg could have made it in acting but the lure of mega-celebrity was too enticing … though in this film, nothing about mega-celebrity looks fun.
