Mick Jagger is the lead singer of the Rolling Stones and an iconic figure of rock performance, who also appeared as Turner, the reclusive rock star, in Nicolas Roeg's 'Performance' (1970).
Jagger's Turner in 'Performance' — reading Borges on screen — established the reading of rock stardom as a specifically literary, self-conscious performance of identity, connecting pop culture to the postmodern philosophical tradition Nolan draws upon.
