The Damned: Don’t You Wish That We Were Dead
Från ”Lemmy”-regissören Wes Orshoski kommer berättelsen om de mest ouppmärksammade pionjärerna inom punken: THE DAMNED – de första brittiska punkarna på vinyl och de första att korsa Atlanten.
Filmen fångar bandet på sitt 35-årsjubileum och den världsturné som följde, och under tre år får vi lära oss allt om bandets komplicerade historia med alla bråk, avhopp och en kamp mot cancer.
I THE DAMNED: Don’t You Wish That We Were Dead får vi träffa bl.a. Chrissie Hynde, Mick Jones (The Clash), Lemmy, Pink Floyd, Black Flag, Guns ‘N’ Roses, the Sex Pistols, Blondie, Buzzcocks och många många fler.
