The Filth and the Fury covers the rise and fall of the Sex Pistols in the late 1970s. This is fine example of the documentary as an art form. The film switches cleverly between concert scenes, interviews, and footage of riots and social unrest. If you are a Sex Pistols fan, the rare concert footage alone make this film worth seeing.
Even if you don't like punk rock you will enjoy this movie. The Sex Pistols were a phenomena that changed the face of music forever. Their story is both fascinating and tragic. Highly recommended.
