At last,the truth is finally told
I was born in 1983,so I never had any real insight on how influencial the Sex Pistols really were until I saw this film. Britan in the late 1970s was a grim place;unemployment,IRA bombs,recession,depression.These were the reasons why punk had to happen. The first truly great Pistols movie(after the disapointing Great Rock'N'Roll and Sid & Nancy).Excellent retropective interviews with the four surviving Pistols,a dazzling array of clips and concert footage and,best of all,previously unseen interview footage with the late Sid Vicious,who proves to be surprisingly articulate and intelligent.You can't help but feel touched when John Lydon sheds a tear for his deceased friend. An exhilerating,funny,tragic and insightful documentary.A must see.
