Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains

This rarely screened cult favorite from Grammy winner Lou Adler (Rocky Horror Picture Show) is a sharp satire of punk, fame, and life on tour. Featuring early performances from Diane Lane, Laura Dern, and Ray Winstone—plus cameos from members of The Sex Pistols, The Clash, and The Tubes—the film follows a teen punk band as they ditch small-town life to take their raw act on the road.

"There's no compromise in the film's bleak, often scabrously funny portrait of life on the road."
Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times
"Corinne's inconsistencies play out in a film that abounds with them, tensions and discrepancies that likely reflect the conflicting visions of its makers but that take nothing away from the movie's feral vigor."
Melissa Anderson, 4Columns

This film is part of the Sounds of Summer series.
