Punks and Poseurs: A Journey Through the Los Angeles Underground

About This Movie

So, 'Punks and Poseurs' captures this gritty slice of the LA punk scene in '85 without any narration, which is refreshing. The film's got this raw energy – it’s all about the music and the vibe of the underground. You see these incredible performances but also interspersed interviews with people like Pleasant Gehman and Iris Berry. They really give insight into what punk means, both from the inside and out. The pacing feels a bit chaotic, but that’s kind of the point, right? It mirrors the scene itself. There's a certain authenticity here, not polished but real, like the very essence of punk. It’s fascinating to see the evolution of the subculture captured in such a format.
