Anita Pallenberg, born in 1942 in Rome, Italy, was a pivotal figure in the 1960s counterculture, merging fashion with film. She starred in Barbarella (1968) and Sympathy for the Devil (1968), embodying the era's bohemian spirit. Pallenberg also played a significant role in the creation of Performance (1970), where she not only acted but contributed as an uncredited writer. Her influence extended beyond cinema, shaping the style of rock icons like Keith Richards, making her a key player in the cultural landscape of her time.
Sympathy for the Devil
An exhilarating, provocative motion picture. The Rolling Stones rehearse their latest song, "Sympathy For the Devil," in a London studio. Beginning as a ballad, the track gradually acquires a pulsating groove, which gets Jagger into a rousing vocal display of soulful emotion that Godard captures on film.
