  GOSSIP   4. GOSSIP: What people think they know and are happy to tell you about Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones
 



I guess when you are Mick Jagger, you meet a lot of people. Given how many first-person encounters people from all over the Western World have shared with us about Mick ­ people who did his hair, shared a line of Coke with him, decorated his apartment, tried to sell a house in Texas to him, fitted him for a costume, saw him at the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, ­ I expect that any day now my mother will call me to tell me that she just met Mick in the vestibule of her church.
And is hasn't only been Mick ­everyone seems to have an Anita and a Keith story too. Well, I can't go into the details here, or reveal my sources ­ it would be unfair. But I can say that we listened attentively to ALL first person accounts and incorporated all the information into our understanding of the Stones and their scene.
I would also like to reiterate here that The Anita Pallenberg Story is NOT a film ABOUT Anita Pallenberg or the Stones: it is a film about their images, their legacy. They are just the CONCEPT, not the source, not even the reason.
