White Stripes Disavow Documentary

The White Stripes have gone on the offensive against a filmmaker they say has released an unauthorized documentary about the duo. "Nobody Knows How To Talk to Children," which was recently screened at the Seattle Film Festival, was shot by George Roca over the White Stripes' four-night stand in 2002 at New York's Bowery Ballroom.

"He wanted to videotape the entire event, stage performance and backstage goings on for his demo reel," the band writes on its official Web site. "We said yes to his request provided he and his crew agreed to the following conditions: 1) it had to be all shot in black and white 2) the cameramen had to wear uniforms (white lab coats in fact), 3) no camera people were allowed to talk to anyone (this was to present a sense of easiness around the building so that people would be more themselves instead of being intimidated with a camcorder taping them the whole time) and 4) the White Stripes own the footage 100%. "George Roca agreed to all of these terms. He signed a contract along with his co-workers stating that the White Stripes completely own the footage, and nothing could be done with this without our permission."

It's a link to an MSN e-mail or something that is strictly for MSN users or something of that nature. The IP address, when entered, brings up an MSN page and asks for a .NET passport.

I guess it becomes inactive after a day or so - MSN is worthless
