The Best Sex Pistols Documentary
21 September 2000
The Filth and the Fury is, by far, the best documentary you will ever see on the Sex Pistols. There is a lot of old footage you might have seen before in other films, but there is also some added footage and some good interviews of the members speaking of their exploits.

The Grundy interview is broken down very well while being explained. They also do refer to themselves briefly on the tradition of anarchy and the Gorgon riots. There is also a few cuts from `who killed Bambi', while explaining how all their funds was invested in this failed movie that turned into a `the Great Rock and Roll Swindle.'

If you're not a Sex Pistol fan, you will still find this intriguing on how the evolution on what Punk rock was, and how pertinent the Sex Pistol experience was.

This is also a bipartisan view of Malcolm McLaren. Which is very significant, due to his involvement in other films, which has casted him as the leader of these group of teenagers.

Julien Temple, the great director he is, finally tells the true story.
