Joe Strummer, the Future is Unwritten is a new documentary directed by Julien Temple about the life and times of Joe Strummer--guitarist, singer, guiding creative spirit along with Mick Jones of the Clash.
It's a very interesting biography. It has it said, and he died. He was only fifty in 2002 from a congenital heart defect. But his life offers a window not only on the history of pop music and English society but also on the personality of a very interesting, peculiar, foot-loose, eccentric, very sincere and idealistic man.
Then he was a busker and a wanderer and a squatter in London and then punk rock came along and changed everything including his life. The Clash didn't invent punk rock, but they took its raw, angry energy and infused it with some politics and also with a musical variety that other bands like the Ramones or the Sex Pistols didn't quite have. He was born John Mellor. His father was a diplomat. He spent his early childhood in various diplomatic postings, and then went off to boarding school, all of which is a bit at odds with the rough-and-tumble proletarian image that he cultivated with the Clash.
But really this movie is a lot richer and more subtle than a standard made for VH1 celebrity biopic. That's partly because of the technique. It is a kind of collage of all different sorts of images and sounds that just carries you along on a current of sensations and impressions that really deepen and enrich the story. It's also because the story itself is about such a fascinating, warm and complicated character.
