D.O.A.
1981 · TMDB 5.7
Directed by Lech Kowalski
Documentary chronicling the rise and fall of the punk movement with rare interview footage of Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen. Also concert and news footage.
Why it matters
Lech Kowalski's documentary follows the Sex Pistols on their disastrous 1978 American tour, weaving in performances by the Dead Boys, Generation X and others. It is less a concert film than a portrait of a scene tearing itself apart in real time.
