Anita Pallenberg

Thanks sweetie. You have a way of picking up my day. I know you guys could've done a much better job cleaning them up. I should've emailed them to you... I guess I still could, maybe? Nah... they're old. Remember the Performance photos? Ugh! Here are a few I
captured from Performance (as you know):
 
thank you,darling :flower:
I wonder when the picture w/ brian + marianne was exactly taken;perhaps it was right after their trip to morocco...?
(I remember having read that brian had to be hospitalized in france,while anita + keith went on and a few days later she returned back to him w/ marianne )

btw, I'm fine with your screen caps as well (:

You're very welcome, dahlin. Yeah, the screen caps are really obnoxious. I've gotta work on that. In the book the date is 11 March 1967. I gather the shot was taken at Heathrow Airport because there's another photo in the book of both Marianne and Anita strolling through the airport. btw, anyone know who the guy seated there is?

Here is the caption for the photos of Anita and Marianne (which I will upload asap; it's beautiful!)

While awaiting their flight to Tangier, Marianne Faithfull and Anita Pallenberg wander through Heathrow Airport in search of refreshments on 11 March 1967.
 
ay-ay-ayyyy!
thanks,hun! :blush: this is the first pic posted here w/ only anita + marianne on it ever.
miss pallenberg has killer legs,seriously...they're just made for wearing skimpy mini-dresses! (;

btw,I'm afraid I don't know the guy who's with them at heathrow either,sorry.

This has to be one of the greatest photos of Anita and Marianne together, but since they're so scarce, who knows. Here is a scan of Anita, Keith and baby Marlon at Heathrow airport in 1969. The Stones had just played Altamont.
 
Here are a few from 79-80. As you can tell she started to slide. However, Ithink she looks great in the hat (I've got a thing for hats). Photos are courtesy of WireImage/Ron Galella:

Sorry for the late reply hon, no i dont unfortunelty own the dvd or video. I was in London and they showed it as apart of a film festival. Infact on the way out i stole a poster... or two. I definetly will be on the look out for it now. Well worth it, the whole film is intoxicating. So good to see more pics of Anita:heart:

I didn't know this about Mia Farrow was suppose to be Lucy
:
'PERFORMANCE' Nicolas Roeg & Donald Cammell (1970);
STORY OF THE SCENE
From: The Independent - London | Date: November 17, 2006 | Author: ROGER CLARKE

By 1968, the cinematographer Nicolas Roeg, who had distinguished himself with his work for Francois Truffaut ( Fahrenheit 451) and John Schlesinger ( Far from the Madding Crowd) had become a familiar figure in the Rolling Stones/Beatles/Robert Fraser/Chelsea demi- monde of Swinging London. In the summer of that year, he put his contacts to good use by making Performance with Donald Cammell, a painter who had recently reinvented himself as a scriptwriter. They moved into a house in Notting Hill, west London, and made one of the most groundbreaking films in British cinema.
The story of a gangland boss who improbably goes to ground in the crumbling house of a pop star played by Mick Jagger, it features two famous scenes involving the Rolling Stones frontman - then at the height of his powers. The surreal "Memo from Turner" sequence was a trippy fantasy in which Jagger donned a dapper suit and tie and started behaving like a gangland boss. But the scene that caused the most fuss was Jagger in bed with Anita Pallenberg and Michele Breton. Mia Farrow was supposed to be the Breton character, named Lucy, but had broken her ankle.

A couple of large and powerful lights were aimed at the bed. Using a 16mm Rolex camera, operator Mike Molloy found himself under the sheets in what turned out to be a very long and very genuine sexual encounter between the three stars. "When I came up to reload the camera, Nic said: 'sod this, you're having all the fun', and dived under the bedclothes himself," he later told Quentin Falk of the Bafta magazine.

When the 10 rolls of film were sent to the lab for development, Roeg and Cammell found their production in trouble. The footage was dubbed p*rn*gr*ph*c and the lab deemed itself criminally liable for prosecution. Roeg's employee Chris O'Dell supervised the destruction of much of the material.
But some of the footage escaped the net, and according to one apocryphal source, was distributed in Holland as a p*rn film. The final bowdlerised version of the film (which still has four edits circulating - the cuts were ordered by Warners) was mostly finessed by Cammell after Roeg decamped to Australia to make Walkabout.

It remains something of an irony that Jagger's best and most memorable film role should be modelled on his friend and nemesis Brian Jones. Many years after the film's release, Jagger told author Colin McCabe that the myths still swirling around the film were "so good I can't deny them". Its themes still enthral British filmmakers, drawn to its flavour of Kray-like gangsterism, urban decay and decadent rock stars.

I am so excited that Performance is being released on DVD soon. Its one of my favourite movies, lagely due to the presence of the wicked and charismatic Anita. I love the way in Abosutely Fabulous she played the Devil to Marianne Faithfull's God.

Any more news on the Autobiography?
