Watch Gimme Shelter 2014 Online Megavideo ADDITION: Criterion - Region 'A' - Blu-ray November 09: These transfers were taken from the same 16mm elements as the uncensored thirtieth-anniversary source on the DVD version, but are rendered in 1080P. Colors occasionally show some divergence (improved skin tones - redder rather than orange, richer black levels, and tighter overall) and grain appears as thick as a plush shag rug. There is a healthy amount of additional information in the frame on all 4 edges. It looks much unified in motion and has far less artifacts and noise - it's really all 'grain' and has a magnificent textured appearance. The more notable improvement, for some, may be in the audio which offers the option of a strong DTS-HD Master 5.1 at 3804 kbps, and another lossless DTS-HD Master but in 2.0 channel at 1990 kbps. The 5.1 mix really has some depth and gives a great concert recreation - far more intuitive to the experience than I was anticipating. These tracks are a BIG part of this film presentation as far as I am concerned and probably the most significant reason for double-dipping (akin to our opinion of Jimi Plays Monterey / Shake!).

 Extras are mostly duplicated with the features being in HD! including the same interesting audio commentary featuring directors Albert Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin and collaborator Stanley Goldstein. Also still here is the performances by the Rolling Stones at Madison Square Garden in 1969, including “Oh Carol” and “Prodigal Son," plus backstage outtakes and footage of the band mixing “Little Queenie", audio excerpts from KSAN Radio’s Altamont wrap-up, recorded December 7, 1969, with introductions by then DJ Stefan Ponek and the Altamont stills gallery, featuring the work of renowned photographers Bill Owens and Beth Sunflower. Criterion have included another "Timeline" features and the extensive 38-page liner notes booklet featuring essays by film critic Amy Taubin, music writer Stanley Booth, Jagger’s former assistant Georgia Bergman,

music writer Michael Lydon, and film critic Godfrey Cheshire although we lose ex-Oakland Hell’s Angels chapter head Sonny Barger's piece (which can probably be found somewhere on the Web). Gimme Shelter by Albert Maysles, David Maysles and Charlotte Zwerin captures this whole emotional experience so succinctly. It is one of those films that keeps getting better with repetition - and now seeing in in the significantly improved video and vastly superior audio - is a fabulous treat. You don't have to be a Stones fan to appreciate this Blu-ray and we strongly recommend.
