Joe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten

A Movie ReelJoe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten: 8.5 out of 10.

If you're a fan of Joe Strummer, this is a documentary you absolutely have to see. Even if you're just a casual fan of The Clash, I'm suggesting you set aside a couple of hours for Joe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten.

There's awesome detail, and out of nowhere, sitting around a campfire, are a few of the coolest actors in Hollywood. I'm talking Steve Buscemi, John Cusack and Johnny Depp. But don't see this doc for those guys... see it for Joe.

I remember the summer after my first year in college. Soon as I cashed my first pay cheque it was off to Eaton's in downtown Montreal to buy London Calling. Must have listen to album thousands of times.
Another one taken too young.
RIP Joe

I went to the market to realise my soul
'Cause what I need I just don't have
First they curse, then they press me till I hurt
We say Rudie can't fail
We hear them sayin'
Now first you must cure your temper
Then you find a job in the paper
You need someone for a saviour
Oh Rudie can't fail

I caught the tail end last night on Showtime, I am going to be looking for it until it comes on again. If the rest is that good,I may just go buy the damn DVD.

Loved the movie, saw it back when it was in theaters. But where was Paul Simonon?
