| Opplysninger | D.O.A.: A Right of Passage is a 1981 rockumentary film directed by Lech Kowalski (his premiere film as a director) about the origin of punk rock. The rockumentary takes interview and concert footage of some of punk rock's earliest bands of the late seventies scene. Features live performances by the Sex Pistols, The Dead Boys, Generation X (with Billy Idol), The Rich Kids, the X-Ray Spex, and Sham 69, with additional music from The Clash, Iggy Pop, and Augustus Pablo. - The film centers around the Sex Pistols 1978 tour of the United States which ended with the group breaking up. The tour was the only one the group played in the U.S. Film director Lech Kowalski followed them with handheld cameras through the clubs and bars of their seven-city Southern tour. Mixing this with footage of other contemporary bands, trends in the fashion capitals, and punks of all shapes and colors, Kowalski created a grainy, stained snapshot of a movement at its peak,[4] showing how certain authority figures saw the movement as a threat.[3] It features interview footage (including the famous interview of Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen in bed), and behind the scenes shots from the tour as well as interviews with audience members who had strong and widely varied reactions to the group.[5] The majority of the material surrounds the Pistols tour as well but it also included other performances by first wave Punk acts such as The Dead Boys and Generation X with Billy Idol.[3][4][5] This indie film was shot mostly in bars and clubs on 16mm film, and documented early years of punk from both in front of and behind the stage.[3] The film's poster is featured prominently in one scene of the 1981 film Neighbors. D.O.A. also featured in The Filth and the Fury, a 2000 rockumentary film about the Sex Pistols directed by Julien Temple, and in the 2002 television series Hollywood Rocks the Movies: The 1970s.[5]. - Stiv Bators as himself (The Dead Boys)Terry Chimes as himself (The Clash) The Clash as themselves Paul Cook as himself (Sex Pistols) The Dead Boys as themselves Generation X as themselves Jonathan Guinness as himself Topper Headon as himself (The Clash) Billy Idol as himself (Generation X) Tony James as himself (Generation X) Mick Jones as himself (The Clash) Steve Jones as himself (Sex Pistols) John Lydon as himself (Johnny Rotten) Glen Matlock as himself (The Rich Kids) Gene October as himself (Generation X) Augustus Pablo as himself Bernard Brooke Partridge as himself - Council Member Rich Kids as themselves Heidi Robinson as herself - Tour Manager Sex Pistols as themselves Sham 69 as themselves Paul Simonon as himself (The Clash) Nancy Spungen as herself Joe Strummer as himself (The Clash) Terry Sylvester as himself Terry and the Idiots as themselves Sid Vicious as himself Mary Whitehouse as herself - Anti-Smut Crusader X-Ray Spex as themselves. - Ground-breaking classic "rockumentary" about the origin of punk rock.
