After being shelved for more than 20 years the proto Riot Grrrl film Ladies and Gentlemen the Fabulous Stains is getting a proper re-release via Rhino on DVD.
Here is the official product description:
Recently orphaned Corrine Third Degree Burns (a 14-year-old Diane Lane) enlists her cousin (Laura Dern) and sister (Marin Kanter) to launch a punk rock band The Stains. Three rehearsals later The Stains score the opening slot on a cross-country tour with aging metal act The Metal Corpses (led by Fee Waybill of The Tubes) and British punk rockers The Looters (real-life punk pioneers Paul Simonon from The Clash and Steve Jones & Paul Cook of The Sex Pistols). The Stains meteoric rise (and equally lightening-quick fall) owes more to TV exposure than to talent.
Here is the film trailer as well as part one and part two of the making of LGFS
