American filmmaker
Jim Jarmusch's documentary love letter to punk icons Iggy Pop and his
band, The Stooges. Michigan-born Iggy's youthful music career wavered,
until he found his Stooges soulmates in Dave Alexander (bass), and
brothers Ron (guitar) and Scott Asheton (drums). Three ground-breaking
albums and just a few years later, the band was literally falling
apart. Iggy gleefully relates the story of those crazy years from "I
Wanna Be Your Dog" to "Raw Power." Gimme Danger is brimful of music,
clips and anecdotes, including Bowie, Nico and the crowd-surfing Iggy
himself. |
