It's knowing about the killing, and waiting for it to happen on the screen that gives the film its energy and thrust.

Overview
A detailed chronicle of the famous 1969 tour of the United States by the British rock band The Rolling Stones, which culminated with the disastrous and tragic concert held on December 6 at the Altamont Speedway Free Festival, an event of historical significance, as it marked the end of an era: the generation of peace and love suddenly became the generation of disillusionment.

This is a seminal rock doc, and the actual music is only a small part of the magic.
