Film: "Rude Boy"

Description

Jordi Picatoste presents his latest book, Rock y cine (Redbook). To illustrate this, he proposes the screening of Rude Boy, an exceptional document about rock and its social context. One of the hidden treasures of rock cinema. Rude Boy is a film in which documentaries and fiction intertwine with the punks The Clash. Directors Jack Hazan and David Mingay, who had already bothered painter David Hockney in A Bigger Splash, approached the iconoclasm band. They filmed concerts and intimate moments and wrapped it up with a fictional excuse. A punk film that Joe Strummer and his family did not like, despite exposing and denouncing, as the band did, the British social context of the time.
