It is all re-created. Think of it as faux-Nellcote. Tacky beyond belief. But what else would you expect from Kijak who was still in diapers when the Stones were making exile and who did not even come of age until the 1980s when the Exile period was long over.
It doesn't have to do with age. Just because someone was born in 1943 doesn't mean he was there at Nellcote.Quote

I don't think it is riduculous to say that only someone who was of age in 1972 could have made a good documentary about the Stones during that period. Do you think someone who had never been to Japan, for example, could make a good documentary about Japan ? Impossible. Watching Kijaks film, one can see that he just doesn't get the nuances right. Simply because he was not there at the time.

It's obviously a nonsense to say that only a person who was an adult in 1972 could make a satisfactory documentary. We're talking about an historical perspective here.
