“Punk rock died when the last kid said, ‘Punk’s not dead… punk’s not dead.’”  Or maybe it died when Los Angeles punk frontman Jeff Bailey had to duck over the border into Mexico after stealing $1,000 and a handful of quaaludes from a club owner’s safe.  Directors Allison Anders, Dean Lent, and Kurt Voss question all this and more in this classic independent film tracing the struggles of the band members, hangers on, and wife and child who are left behind.  Good music too.
