a film about the career of the notorious punk rock band, the sex pistols.
dir.: julien temple
documentary / biography / music
2000
the 1st movie j.temple made about the sex pistols was the great rock and roll swindle, which was released in british cinemas on 1980. this earlier effort was heavily criticised for being too skewed towards the pistols’ manager malcolm mclaren’s version of events about the band. “the filth and the fury” tells the story from the viewpoint of the band members themselves (albeit in silhouette during their contemporary interviews).
the title of the film is a reference to a headline that appeared in the british tabloid newspaper the daily mirror after an interview on itv’s today presented by bill grundy. the title of the daily mirror article was itself inspired by william faulkner’s novel the sound and the fury.
it shows the rise, decline and fall of the sex pistols from their humble beginnings in london’s shepherd’s bush to their disintegration at the winterland ballroom in san francisco. temple puts the band into historical context with britain’s social situation in the 1970s through archival footage from the period. this film was seen in some ways as an opportunity for the pistols to tell their side of the story, mostly through interviews with the surviving members of the group, footage shot during the era, and outtakes from the great rock and roll swindle.

so many punk bands out at the time were making music that said ‘fuck you’; joy division strove to make something that said ‘i’m fucked’.

“over 3 years i photographed fans outside different concerts. i was fascinated by the different tribes of people that attended them, and how people emulated celebrity to form their identity.”
