By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 21 June 2018
Public Image Ltd have announced that they will screen a documentary about the band in cinemas around the UK as part of their 40th anniversary celebrations this year. ‘The Public Image Is Rotten’ was premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York last year, followed by its first European screening at the Raindance Film Festival in London.
The film looks at the band’s history since being formed by John Lydon in 1978, following the break up of the Sex Pistols. It also features interviews with other artists who have been influenced by the band, including Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea and Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore.
