SLC Punks

Posted on March 17, 2002April 17, 2021 by Village Vidiot

  “SLC Punk!,” March 17, 2002 (1998), tv/IFC.   The first 2/3 of this movie is really fun and in your face. Then it can’t sustain the courage not to moralize. It is a fun and sort of depressing romp through 80s punk culture in Salt Lake City (who’d of thunk it!). A pleasant antidote to Olympic paeans to Mormonism and the city’s sterility. The portrayal of the protagonists parents is a painful hoot. A real sleeper
