Description

[Machine Translation] A new film about a new generation, in which the unhinged anger of the 80's punks explodes! Penelope Spheeris (The Decline) has created the most important punk movie of all time with this ruthless coming-of-age story of young dropouts. Following its Japanese theatrical premiere last year, the new master version is now available on DVD! The orphans, who have left home because they don't get along with their families and everything in the world seems meaningless, call themselves T.R. ("The Rejected") and spend their days getting drunk on punk rock music every night in search of more friends. The T.R.'s are gradually driven into a corner by the residents, who dislike the T.R.'s and demand their removal from the city. The T.R.'s, who are searching for their own identity, finally explode with their uncontrollable anger along with the intense punk rock music... The fragile daily lives of punks living on the streets, unable to fit into society. Penelope Spheeris, director of "The Decline" ('81) and "Wayne's World" ('92), which grossed over 100 million dollars at the box office, made her feature debut under the direction of Roger Corman, the king of B-movies. The director found the lead actress, Jennifer Clay, at a Public Image Limited show, and she was cast in the film. Corman, who works on the principle of "never incurring a loss," instructed Spheeris to "include a sex or violence scene every 10 minutes," and Spheeris was able to strike a balance that did not destroy the original framework of the film and made the film as directed. He also convinced Corman, who objected to the use of an unknown cast of real punks, by saying, "Your blockbuster 'Wild Angel' ('66) was also successful with real Hell's Angels in the cast. Jennifer Clay has not appeared in any other films, and her career and whereabouts are unknown. Free, now of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, made her film debut in "Mike B. the Flea," after a director discovered her hanging out at the home of Lee Ving of the LA punk rock band FEAR. According to Flea, "'Rebel Punk Rock' is the bible of punk films worldwide. The film includes live performances by T.S.O.L., the Vandals, DI, and other fierce US hardcore acts, making it a rare opportunity to experience the atmosphere of the time. The film has not been released in Japan, and has ended up on DVD release and TV broadcast, but 39 years after its production, it is being shown for the first time in its latest digital new master version. The Decline" is a feature film version of Spheeris' debut film, "The Decline," but in 1998, Spheeris followed up with the documentary "The Decline III" to show the cruel reality of the real punks, whose situation was even worse than in "The Decline.

Description in Japanese

反逆のパンク・ロック / 洋画

新しいジェネレーションについての・・・新しい映画。80年代パンクスの行き場のない怒りが爆発する! ドロップアウトした若者たちの非情な青春を、『ザ・デクライン』のペネロープ・スフィーリス監督が焼き付けた、パンク・ムービー最重要作。昨年の日本劇場初公開につづき、ニューマスターでDVD化! 家族ともうまくいかず、世の中のものすべてが無意味に思え家を出た街の孤児たちは、自身のことをT.R. (The Rejected=拒否された脱落者)と呼び、毎夜さらなる仲間を求めてパンク・ロックに酔いしれる日々を過ごす。そんななか、T.R.たちを嫌悪し街からの排除を求める住民たちとの対立は次第に激化、T.R.たちは追い詰められていく―。激しいパンク・ロックとともに、自らのアイデンティティを模索するT.R.たちは、そのやり場のない怒りをついに爆発させるのだった・・・。社会に馴染めない路上生活を送るパンクスたちの儚い日常。パンク・ドキュメンタリー映画の最高峰といわれる『ザ・デクライン』('81)、興行収入1億ドル突破の『ウェインズ・ワールド』('92)の監督ペネロープ・スフィーリスがB級映画の帝王ロジャー・コーマンのもとで撮り上げた長編劇映画デビュー作。俳優ではなく多くの本物のパンクスたちをキャストに起用、主演女優のジェニファー・クレイはパブリック・イメージ・リミテッドのライヴに並んでいるところを監督が発見、出演となった。赤字を絶対に出さないことを信条に動くコーマンに、<10分に一度はセックスシーンか暴力シーンを入れろ>と指示されたスフィーリス監督は、当初の作品の骨格を破綻させない程度にバランスをとり指示通りの作品に仕上げた。また、本物のパンクスたちという無名のキャスト起用に反対するコーマンに対し、「あなたの大ヒット作『ワイルド・エンジェル』(66)でも本物のヘルズ・エンジェルスを出演させて成功したわ」と反論、コーマンを納得させた。ジェニファー・クレイの他の出演作はなく、キャリアや消息も不明。現レッド・ホット・チリ・ペッパーズのフリーはLAのパンク・ロックバンドFEARのリー・ヴィングの家にたむろしていたところを監督に発見され本作で映画デビュー、「Mike B. the Flea」の名でクレジットされている。フリーいわく「『反逆のパンク・ロック』は世界的にパンク映画のバイブルとなっている」という。本編ではT.S.O.L.、ヴァンダルズ、DIなどのUSハードコア猛者たちのライヴが盛り込まれ、当時の空気に触れられる貴重な映画となった。日本では未公開、DVD発売やテレビ放送で終わっていたが、制作から39年を経て、最新のデジタル・ニューマスターで初公開となる。本作はスフィーリス監督のデビュー作『ザ・デクライン』の劇映画版的な側面を持つが、その後の98年、スフィーリス監督はドキュメンタリーである『ザ・デクラインIII』で本作以上の状況となった本物のパンクスたちの非情な現実を映し出すこととなる。
映像特典: オリジナル予告編、日本版予告編、監督音声解説
