I've watched The Filth & The Fury a bunch of times too in the past few months. Great flick!

No, but I'd love to hear Temple's commentary. I've actually caught the film on cable a bunch of times. I realy need to pick up the DVD.

In my opinion, Filth & the Fury is a great film, it's very honest as to what was going on at the time (mid to late 70's) I think The Sex Pistols were perhaps one of the last rock bands to make a difference, along with The Clash.

guitarman - i note you are fairly new here so you may have missed the fact that we only recently had the latest episode of the perennial debate - did the pistols specifically and punk generally really matter - in my mind there is no doubt the answer is yes on both counts and temple's film illustrates perfectly why that is so

I'm even compelled to watch "Sid and Nancy" whenever I catch it on cable. Even though there's some artistic license taken, Alex Cox did a great job on that one, and Gary Oldman is unbelievably good as Sid. And I've always loved the soundtrack pieces by Pray For Rain.
Hard to believe it's been 30 years. We thought we'd never get old.
