Film Night at The Railway Presents A Punk Double Bill Featuring 'Punk Rock Movie' (Don Letts, 1978) + 'There Is No Authority But Yourself' (Alex Oey, 2006) - The Railway Hotel, Monday February 18th, 2013 - 7:00pm - 11:00pm
A double bill consisting of 2 seminal documents from the UK punk movement;
Don Letts' Punk Rock Movie (1978)
A revealing look into the bands comprising the 1977 London punk-rock scene, and a peek back-stage at the lives behind the facade. Includes performances by Sex Pistols, Siouxsie and the Banshees, Eater, and other concurrent bands.
Most of the bands were filmed at the Roxy club in London, where Don Letts worked as a DJ. Letts filmed the bands very simply with a Super-8 camera, and also filmed on the tour bus and at shows with The Clash and The Slits. The Sex Pistols were filmed at Screen on the Green in London on 3 April 1977, Sid Vicious's first show with the band. A wonderful historical document of one of the most important musical and cultural revolutions of the 20th Century!
There Is No Authority But Yourself (2006)
The anarchist punk band Crass was very different from their contemporaries. The Sex Pistols and The Clash sold their souls to big record labels, whereas Crass stayed true to their anti-corporate ideals. Crass still exists today as a commune just outside of London named 'Dial House'- a safe haven for those individuals of principle who still live by the old punk slogan 'Do it yourself'.
Director Alexander Oey (1960) has directed a large number of documentaries, mainly for the Dutch networks VPRO and NPS, such as 'My Life as a Terrorist: The Story of Hans - Joachim Klein' (2005), 'Euro-Islam according to Tariq Ramadan' (2005),'Bijlmer the Rough Guid' (2003) and 'Jeff Wall' (1999).
