If you loved Grey Gardens, try Gimme Shelter

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Albert Maysles, David Maysles, and they sit in Documentary territory. If that's the register that drew you to Grey Gardens, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Gimme Shelter is

Easy Rider without motorcycles. The Rolling Stones' 1969 U.S. tour becomes a dark mirror as it stumbles toward the Altamont Free Concert. A film record of a generation losing its sunny optimism in real time.
