Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous StainsN/C 15+
Sunday 29 March
GFT
7.45 p.m
This film is a rarely seen and deeply subversive tale of a trio of misfit teenage girls who start a band and go on the road with ageing metal band and British punks The Looters (Sex Pistols’ Steve Jones and The Clash’s Paul Cook and Paul Simonon). The Stains swiftly front their way to stardom with a winning combination of mouthy attitude and incredible hair, leaving a trail of empowered copy-cat punk girls in their wake. Featuring a barely post-adolescent Diane Lane and Laura Dern, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains offers a merciless take on the music industry and the nature of exploitation, and proved inspirational to the social and musical movement of Riot Grrl.
This screening will be introduced by musician Adele Bethel, lead singer of Sons and Daughters. Screening in 35mm.
