Svetlana Zill and Alexis Bloom, directors of the documentary 'Catching Fire,' discuss Anita Pallnberg's influence on the Rolling Stones and Kate Moss.
, the model and actress’ son, Marlon Richards, discovered an unpublished manuscript of her autobiography.
As great as Pallenberg’s influence was — she inspired Stones hits like “Gimme Shelter” and “Wild Horses,” as well as her starring role in 1970’s “Performance,” which costarred Mick Jagger — she was frequently reduced to her relationships with famous men.“It was certainly because of the time,” Bloom explained. “She also wasn’t a person who clamored for attention in that way. Credit wasn’t important to her.
Fleeing prosecution for tax evasion in Britain, the band settled in the South of France. Pallenberg ran the home at Villa Nellcôte, where she became the Stones’ translator , babysitter and bodyguard.“By then, I realized that Keith’s music came first,” Johansson narrates in the film. “Everything else came second.”
Richards, often wearing his girlfriend’s clothes, helped define an era of free-spirited yet glamorous fashion that still resonates today: designers like Anna Sui and Isabel Marant have built brands on styles pioneered by Pallenberg.“She was the original Bohemian rock chick,” Moss says in “Catching Fire.” “She was everything you want a rock star to be, or for me, everything you want a woman to be.”
