'Crossfire Hurricane' on DVD: Rolling Stones in their prime and not much else


As previously reported, the U.S./Canadian release for the movie on DVD, Blu-ray and digital video is May 21, 2013. "Crossfire Hurricane" was originally scheduled for a U.S. and Canadian release on DVD/Blu-ray/digital video on Jan. 15, 2013. It was released in January 2013 in the U.K., Japan and other countries.
"Crossfire Hurricane" (directed by Brett Morgen) is the official 50th anniversary documentary of the Rolling Stones. However, the movie focuses primarily on the band's first 20 years. Morgen said in interviews that because of the deadline for the movie's release, there wasn't enough time to cover the band's entire history in the film. Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger, who is one of the producers of "Crossfire Hurricane," told USA Today that a "Crossfire Hurricane" sequel is very possible.
I already did a complete review of the movie after I saw "Crossfire Hurricane" at the movie's New York City premiere.
