On November 15, 2012, the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York City hosted a very rare public screening of the Rolling Stones documentary "@#$%& Blues," which was filmed during the Stones' drug-fueled 1972 North American tour but never officially released due to its controversial content. "@#$%& Blues" (directed by Robert Frank) has been bootlegged for decades, and a lot of the movies' footage can be seen in the 2012 Rolling Stones documentary "Crossfire Hurricane."

As previously reported, the MOMA screening of "@#$%& Blues" was part of the the museum's Rolling Stones retrospective "The Rolling Stones: 50 Years on Film," which runs from November 15 and December 13, 2012.

No one went to this? Or to any other movies included in the retrospective? Wish they had done the same thing in other cities...

The link's not working, getting "404: opps!" instead.

I don't know why MOMA wouldn't continue the exhibit through the weekend of Dec. 15. I would think that a lot of people coming in for the concert would want to go see it. I know I would.

This was not the first time this was shown in NYC! I was there and saw it for the 3rd time in the last 4 years. Apparently, someone representing Robert Frank must be at ANY time this film is shown.
PS: I really love seeing this on a large screen!

What's the quality of the official version like? I think I recognized some pictures in crossfire hurricane (possibly when they play "it's funny") and they don't look a lot better than the last VHS I bothered looking at about 15 years ago and I suspect there are better versions out there now.

It's because of IORR forum censorship policy...
