PUNK: Attitude (documentary)

pretty cool documentary from Don Letts on punks' origins and the attitude. some great early footage, some good history, good lessons ... not 100% accurate in my opinion, but pretty cool and well worth the time to watch.

Here's the YouTube description:

This documentary is filled with footage of great bands and interviews with some key players in what has probably been the largest music revolution ever. Punk rock shattered the challenged the status quo and continued to impact all generations of youth and culture. Redefining popular music and fashion, it threatened the establishment and legitimized an independent, do-it-yourself attitude. Punk inspired an entire generation of filmmakers, poets, photographers, fashion designers and graphic artists. This film traces punk from its beginnings in the mid-1970s (and earlier) up to its effect on modern rock music and other genres. Yes, it's incomplete but it does provide a worthwhile oral history of punk. Directed by Don Letts, a legendary DJ and central figure on the London punk scene. This movie was an official selection of the Tribeca Film Festival in 2005.
