The Filth and the Fury is a 2000 British
Description
The Filth and the Fury is the second movie
The title of the film is a reference to a headline that appeared in the British tabloid newspaper
Temple's documentary narrates the rise, decline and fall of the Sex Pistols from their humble beginnings in London's Shepherd's Bush to their disintegration at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco.[citation needed] Temple puts the band into historical context with Britain's social situation in the 1970s through archival footage from the period. This film was promoted as an opportunity for the Pistols to tell their perspective of the story mostly through interviews with the surviving members of the group, footage shot during the era, and outtakes from The Great Rock and Roll Swindle.[3]

Notes
- ^ So Peter Bradshaw in The Guardian called the earlier movie "a gloating partisan account of the Sex Pistols from the point of view of their hated manager";[1] critic Roger Ebert, who had worked with McLaren and the band, called it "a version of the Pistols story supplied by Malcolm McLaren, their infamously self-promoting manager".[2]
