Julien Temple's second documentary profiling punk rock pioneers the Sex Pistols is an enlightening, entertaining trip back to a time when the punk movement was just discovering itself. Featuring archival footage, never-before-seen performances, rehearsals, and recording sessions as well as interviews with group members who lived to tell the tale--including the one and only John Lydon (aka Johnny Rotten).

We were fucking nasty little bastards
J’ai envie d’écrire un pavé de 1000 pages juste sur leur influence culturelle qui est encore la aujourd’hui dans la mode dans la musique, De Nirvana à Hedi slimane De Playboi carti à Enfants Riches Déprimés De Che à Undercover les Sex Pistols sont encore là.
