(Pocket review from San Francisco's CBS affiliate)
Lambert & Stamp takes us to swingin’ 1960’s London, where two unknown, but ambitious filmmakers are trying to make a reality television show. Instead, they stumble upon creating rock and roll history. Kit Lambert and Chris Stamp (Stamp, the brother of actor Terence Stamp who appears in the film) are two filmmakers hoping for a hit. Through mod fashion, dangerous gangs and a sometimes glossy, spotty ride through the chaos; something suddenly changes it all. It’s not a traditional doc about The Who, but you do get a feeling of authenticity about that time and place and the wild characters who would deliver the greatest rock opera (Tommy) of all time.
