As a long time fan of the director Julie Temple, I think this one of the best things he has ever done - even if you are not a fan of punk music, you can still get an incredible amount of this film - the historical background of seventies Britain is very well done and the cast of characters including of course Joe Strummer is fascinating - worth it just to see one of my favourite human beings, the legendary original drummer of The Slits, Palmolive!
