Gimme Danger, a new Iggy and the Stooges documentary, has officially made its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival in Cannes, France. The documentary is being presented as part of Cannes’ Midnight Screening series, meaning it’s not in competition with other films. Director Jim Jarmusch has told IndieWire that the documentary is more of an “essay” than a document, describing Gimme Danger as a “love letter to possibly the greatest band in rock’n’roll history.” The documentary contains never-before-seen footage and photographs, with Jarmusch concluding that Gimme Danger is a “little wild, messy, emotional, funny, primitive, and sophisticated in the most unrefined way.” “I was on acid in more than several of the clips in the movie when I was young,” Iggy Pop said at a press conference. “I would go from feeling very aggressive to breaking out in laughter,” he continued, stating he no longer does any drugs. “I don’t do it. I have wine with dinner and that’s about it.” Copyright(c) 2016 RTTNews.com. All Rights ReservedLess «
