End of the Century - The Story of the Ramones

Aroview: A compulsive portrait of NYC punk pioneers The Ramones, who fused pop melodies, ironic lyrics and brash guitar sonics in the mid-1970s and beyond.

While artistically extremely influential, the members have long been renowned for both their love-hate relationships and nihilistic abandon towards drugs, alcohol and 'personal grudges'. The group has always given caustically honest interviews, and the makers of this doco spent 7 years building a catalogue of impressive, often hilarious commentary from all members.

Also features rare live clips over 20 odd years of shows, plus further interviews with Joe Strummer, Debbie Harry and Chris Stein.
