From London to Shanghai

About This Movie

So, 'From London to Shanghai' dives deep into that pivotal Rolling Stones concert in China back in 2006. It’s a fascinating blend of documentary and music, really capturing the electric atmosphere of the event. The interviews are quite engaging, especially with Dale 'Opie' Skjerseth, who shares behind-the-scenes insights that only someone in his position could. And then there's Cui Juan, who connects the Western rock scene to the burgeoning Chinese music landscape. The pacing feels relaxed yet compelling, allowing the viewer to soak in the cultural crossroads. It's not just about the band, but also about music's role in bridging worlds. The visuals aren’t flashy, but they have this gritty authenticity that feels right for the subject matter.
