This movie was life-changing when I was a teen,
By J. Benjamin (Boston, MA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: D.O.A.: A Right of Passage with music by "the Sex Pistols" The Clash" Iggy Pop" Johnny Rotten" (VHS Tape)
This collection of music truly inspired me. D.O.A. is a 1981 documentary film directed by Lech Kowalski about the origin of punk rock. The movie juxtaposes interviews and concert footage of some of punk rock's earliest bands. With live performances by the Sex Pistols, The Dead Boys, Generation X (with Billy Idol), The Rich Kids, the X-Ray Spex, and Sham 69, The Clash, Iggy Pop, and Augustus Pablo, the movie opened me up to a whole new bunch of punk bands.Like the reviewer above, I would love to be able to pay to download this or buy a DVD.

The Only Punk Rock Movie You'll Ever Need,
By
This review is from: D.O.A.: A Right of Passage with music by "the Sex Pistols" The Clash" Iggy Pop" Johnny Rotten" (VHS Tape)
This is, without a doubt, the greatest punk rock movie ever made. From the interviews with seminal bands i their earliest stages (Generation X, Sex Pistols, X-Ray Spex etc.) to the live coverage of the first Pistols show in America, DOA: A Rite of Passage is thus far the ONLY film to truly capture the feel, spirit and philosophy of the era. A near-comatose Sid Vicious is hilarious, as is the truly terrible, ersatz punk band Terry and The Idiots, whose leader is interviewed about the scene throughout the film. The depictions of a very bleak, "no future" England sum it all up as succinctly as the music itself. A treasure that should have been heralded with a DVD release long ago.
