"While the Sex Pistols were an undisputable force in early punk rock, a number of books and films have alleged that the band and their success were more the creation of manager Malcolm McLaren than the members themselves. Unlike past docs, Julien Temple's The Filth and the Fury offers both sides of the story, taking the band's version of events into account. The film plays tonight alongside American Hardcore, Paul Rachman's exploration of DIY anarchy in '80s America. Following acts like Black Flag, the Minutemen, and Bad Brains, the film offers stunning insight into a movement far too loud, fast, and violently anticommercial to make it in the mainstream.
