Rude Boy (Tigon, 1980). Rolled, Fine/Very Fine. One Sheet (27" X 41") Retna Artwork.
Rude Boy is a British film blending documentary and fiction, following a Clash roadie named Ray as he navigates the punk scene amid political unrest. The film features real concert footage of The Clash, but the band later distanced themselves from it, with Joe Strummer calling it "a mess" that failed to capture their ideals (the band went so far as to have Better Badges produce buttons reading "I don't want Rude Boy Clash Film"). Perhaps most interesting to modern audiences is footage of the Clash in the studio recording their classic second album Give 'Em Enough Rope. This scarce one sheet has only been offered three times previously by Heritage Auctions. Small faults including light stains, wrinkles, and edge tears.
