Some rumours circulating about the actual shoot:
Mick and Anita were really at it in the sex scenes.
Keef apparently heard about this and had a one-night-stand with Marianne Faithful to get revenge.
Kenneth Anger was a constant presence on the set and was supposedly Jagger's inspiration for Turner.
William Burroughs was meant to play the judge
James Fox was in the midst of becoming a born again Christian and had a nervous breakdown straight after the film was finished.

yeah i edited above to add that i thought the ending was central to the movie. i read that they [jagger/pallenberg] had fucked but i wasn’t aware of the wider (hilarious) soap opera.
as for the edit, i could see what would be holes in it i guess, but i suppose i’m willing to accept them as a complete expression of a fluid reality, ha ha ha.
