Sonic Cinema presents
Jim Jarmusch’s
new film that chronicles the story
of
The Stooges
, one of the greatest rock bands of all time. Emerging
from Ann Arbor Michigan amidst a countercultural revolution, The
Stooges’ powerful and aggressive style blew a crater in the musical
landscape of the late 1960s. Assaulting audiences with a blend of rock,
blues, R&B, and free jazz, the band planted the seeds for what would
be called punk and alternative rock in the decades that followed. GIMME
DANGER presents the context of the Stooges emergence musically,
culturally, politically, historically, and relates their adventures and
misadventures while charting their inspirations and the reasons behind
their initial commercial challenges, as well as their long-lasting
legacy.
