Rolling Stones Bring 'Crossfire Hurricane' to HBO November 15th

The Rolling Stones debut the new documentary Crossfire Hurricane November 15th on HBO. The film tracks the band's career, from their teenage origins to their rise to stadium-sized glory and beyond. "This is not an academic history lesson," director Brett Morgan said in a statement, describing the film as an invitation to "experience firsthand the Stones' nearly mythical journey from outsiders to rock & roll royalty."

The Rolling Stones are celebrating their 50th anniversary this year and recently spent time in a Paris recording studio. The band will also premiere their tour documentary The Rolling Stones: Charlie Is My Darling – Ireland 1965 as part of the New York Film Festival on September 29th.
