We're See Also and we don't put out!!
To welcome 2023, Kate and Brodie are returning to the source: the proto-feminist punk classic, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains.
It's 1980 and a couple of punk bands roll into the steel town of Charlston, USA. In the audience are Corinne "Third Degree" Burns" (Diane Lane) and her sister Tracy (Marin Kantor), orphaned teens trying to make ends meet after their mum's death, and their cousin Jessica (Laura Dern). They yearn for a way out, for a way to better themselves. By the time the Metal Corpses and the Looters leave for their next tour, The Stains – the girls' band – has joined them as the support act. What happens next, the ignominious break-up of the Looters and the huge success of The Stains, was the feminist fantasy that, in real life, made the film a cult inspiration for the Riot Grrrl movement. Written by Nancy Dowd and directed by Lou Adler, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains prove why every citizen should be given an electric guitar on her 16th birthday.
