The Greatest Rock Band Of All Time
Cine-Rama and the Chattanooga Film Festival have teamed up to present a film about one of the greatest rock-n-roll bands that ever existed by one of the greatest filmmakers who ever lived.
There is no filmmaker more perfect than Jim Jarmusch to tell the strange but true tale of The Stooges. It doesn't get much cooler than Gimme Danger.
Emerging from Ann Arbor, Michigan, amidst a countercultural revolution, The Stooges’ powerful and aggressive style of rock-n-roll 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.
Jim Jarmusch’s new film Gimme Danger chronicles the story of The Stooges, one of the greatest, and least understood, rock-n-roll bands of all time.
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.
