Pistol (2022)
Worse than advertised

Did the filmmakers really try to grasp who these people are? Jonesy is framed as an intelligent, puller of strings when in reality he is a bit of an aloof, lovable goofball with not a ton of drive.
It taps into all the typical myths about the start of punk and reads like a greatest hits of every analysis created about this period.
In no way were every member of that band so self aware from the outset.
I really wish Lydon was wrong about all of this but the guy is absolutely right.
