Reviews Customer Reviews for Marianne Faithfull Dreaming My Dreams      Something New For Me      Rating:       Beyond her history with drugs and Mick Jagger I knew very little about Marianne Faithfull before seeing this DVD. Especially not her early history-her odd family life,acedemic upbringing and her own beginnings as an english pop singer. But throughout the whole thing I kept asking myself:Marianne obviously has a very passionate voice and a distinct (if sometimes eccentric) personality and why at the very cusp of pop stardom in the mid 1960's she chose voluntarily to submit herself to a life of sex,drugs and rock n' roll. Her additude about this might lead one to believe she advocated and praised the heroin addiction in which she indulged. Nevertheless this DVD did paint a broad canvased portrait of her life and art (I had no idea she'd recorded "Sister Morphine" before the Stones did-shows you what I know) even if many of the interviews with Marianne herself border almost on self-therapy,even if as you watch this you begin to realize that is something that she may really need for herself. Even though it's only an hour and could've gone on a little longer-I'd have loved to see extended interviews with her,Keith Richards and her ex husband(s)perhaps this DVD is certainly a treat for the fan and a great primer for the uninitiated such as myself.     Customer Reviews for Marianne Faithfull Dreaming My Dreams Cd      Good material, but stripped down re-release      Rating:      This documentary is a budget re-release of the 2000 DVD of the same name. It has the same documentary material, but the 30-minute bonus music track has been stripped out. Oddly--or misleadingly--the songs are still listed on the back of the keep case. Editorial Reviews for Marianne Faithfull Dreaming My Dreams Audio Cd      Description      "Dreaming My Dreams" is an intimate look into the life and times of Marianne Faithfull, from her rise to stardom with "As Tears Go By" in the `60's up to the present day. Featuring interviews with Faithfull, Keith Richards, Maggie Mayall and other friends and family, this is a gritty, yet fascinating look into the life of a music icon.
