Known for his glamorous celebrity portraits, Cecil Beaton also photographed on film sets. This image shows a very young Mick Jagger in his first screen role in Performance. Shot in 1968 but released only in 1970, the film was initially withheld by Warner Bros. due to its sexual content and graphic violence. Though it received mixed reviews at the time, it has since been reassessed as a highly influential and innovative work of the 1970s, featuring one of the most notable screen performances by a rock musician.
