MOVIE DETAILS:
"CONTROL"
Late-1970s British post-punk band Joy Division was one of the most influential groups of their time. Sam Riley gives an unforgettable performance as the troubled, enigmatic leader of the Manchester band, Ian Curtis, whose talent for singing intense, darkly infectious pop songs was subverted by mood swings, bouts of epilepsy and a crumbling marriage. Samantha Morton (In America, Minority Report) plays his wife, upon whose memoir the film is based. Feature debut of acclaimed photographer and music video director Anton Corbijn.

"Joe Strummer: The Future Is Unwritten"
Son of a diplomat pines away in a British boarding school, dreams of becoming a rock star and graduates at the top of the class of '77, the rag-tag collection of punk and New Wave bands that challenged the corporate music world. That's just part of the mythical life of singer, guitarist and songwriter Joe Strummer, whose politico-punk rock band the Clash became one of the most influential rock outfits of the modern era. Filmmaker Julien Temple (The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle) has crafted here perhaps the best-filmed account of the British punk scene. Structured as a fireside wake, featuring Jim Jarmusch, Johnny Depp, Pearl Harbour, Bono, John Cusack and more, and including riveting rare film footage of home movies of Strummer and his nascent band and onscreen interviews old and new, Joe Strummer rekindles the fiery musical cauldron that spawned some of the most vital music of the Reagan years.

In celebration of Julien Temple's documentary about The Clash rock legend, Joe Strummer: The Future is Unwritten, new wave innovator and Bay Area favorite Pearl Harbour has put together a band for a rare performance. A good friend of Strummer's (and former wife of Clash bassist Paul Simonon), Harbour formed Pearl Harbor and the Explosions in 1978 in San Francisco, and the band toured with The Clash, The Talking Heads and Elvis Costello.
Following the performance, dance to guest DJs Skip and Shindog, from San Francisco's First and Foremost Dance Party, New Wave City. They'll spin classic Clash, Strummer and, in honor of Anton Corbijn's new film Control, Joy Division and New Order.
Be there as Pearl Harbour puts the Rock! in Throckmorton!
Don’t wait. This event will sell out.
