Synopsis
The Definitive Punk Movie - Finally on DVD!
The Sex Pistols star in director Julien Temples bizarre and hilarious fictional documentary that charts the rise and fall of punks most notorious band through the eyes of its calculating manager, Malcolm McLaren. Mixing animation and midgets with footage of some of The Pistols most electrifying live performances, the 1980 film presents the bands success as an elaborate scam perpetrated by McLaren to make "a million pounds" at the expense of record companies, outraged moralists, the British Royal Familyand even the fans and band members themselves.
The Great Rock Rock n Roll Swindle was called "a parable of our times" by the Guardian (UK), but most music fans simply consider it one of the best rock films ever. More than 25 years after their breakup, The Sex Pistols music continues to influence punk and post-punk bands the world over. The Great Rock n Roll Swindle shows why.
