He was quite straight\u2026 I really was like(a rock \u2019n\u2019 roll rebel.) <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cI was very anarchic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe film on Marianne, directed by Jane Pollard and Iain Forsyth, draws on archival material and new interviews. <\/p>\n<p>\nOscar-winning actress Tilda Swinton narrates sections of the project, while actor George MacKay interviews Marianne in her final years.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn one exchange, Marianne also spoke about her encounters with famous men, including Bob Dylan. Recalling a moment shown in D.A. Pennebaker\u2019s 1967 documentary Don\u2019t Look Back, she said: \u201cA lot of tension. He was coming on to me. There was Joan (Baez.) I worshipped her. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cBob said to me, \u2018I\u2019ve been writing poem about you\u2019. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cThat\u2019s what he was typing. Well, it was probably completely made up. <\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cIf I had a dollar for every cute man who&#8217;s told me, \u2018This song, this poem is about you, darling, I\u2019d be rich\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nAsked who some of those other men were, she replied: \u201cI can\u2019t remember,\u201d before smiling.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe film also shows Marianne discussing her songwriting partnership with Mick and Keith Richards. <\/p>\n<p>\nShe explained Sister Morphine, the 1969 single later released by the Rolling Stones, began with Mick playing a melody at home. <\/p>\n<p>\nShe said: \u201cIt started as a lovely tune that Mick was annoyingly playing around the house all the time, so I decided to write lyrics for it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nBroken English features live performances of Marianne\u2019s songs by Beth Orton, Suki Waterhouse and Courtney Love, as well as contributions from Thurston Moore and members of Portishead and My Bloody Valentine. <\/p>\n<p>\nIt concludes with Marianne\u2019s final filmed performance, singing her 2018 track Misunderstanding alongside Nick Cave.<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/marianne-faithfull-recalls-new-film-life-taking-lsd-mick-jagger-1428717.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>31 August 2025 Marianne Faithfull recalls in a new film on her life taking LSD with Mick Jagger the night before a major television interview.
