The Clash Film in Stores Aug 1

2006-06-22 by pulseczar | 12 Comments
The 1980 fictional documentary Rude Boy will be in stores August 1. It's based around a guy who quits his job to go be a roadie for The Clash. The movie includes footage from two Clash UK tours. DVD goodies include live performances "English Civil War" and "White Riot" that didn't make the final cut.
In other news, my London Calling shirt > you.

Nice, I've already seen footage from the original movie but would like to get it.
And I wear my London Calling shirt way too much.

I've seen some of the performances from this and they are quite good. I'll have to get this. Pretty much always bound to get your money's worth if it involves The Clash.

Ive got Rude Boy, the film is a bit naff but if you know a little bit about british politics of the time then stuff like the anti-nazi league rallies and the national front marches are quite interesting. The 'just play the clash' option is great though, it cycles through all the live footage of the band, soe of which - like safe european home and i fought the law - is simple awesome.

my london calling shirt smells of me too much

I just bought this today. Haven't watched it yet though.

EDIT: hmm..its quite good, the concert footage definetly saves the "movie" part though. Overall, good, and very interesting.This Message Edited On 08.13.06
