VMI Worldwide is producing 'I Was a Teenage Sex Pistol,' adapted from Matlock's 1990 book and featuring exclusive interviews with rock n' roll legends from the era.
In his book, Matlock describes the mindset of the U.K. in the early 70’s and divulges a mine of information, including details surrounding the “lost” original Sex Pistol Wally Nightingale, the thievery of Sex Pistol guitarist Steve Jones, the search for a singer, and the excitement and energy around Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood’s fetish fashion shop SEX, which became the center of the exploding punk scene, providing a sharp contrast to the bleak society of early 1970s Britain.
Matlock’s contributions to The Sex Pistols have been downplayed over the years, especially by Jones, although drummer Paul Cook has asserted that Matlock did indeed write most of the songs on. Even the terms of Mattlock’s departure from the band have been disputed, with McLaren, who became the Pistols manager, falsely stating at the time that he was “thrown out” for liking The Beatles. In, Matlock claims he left of his own volition as he was “sick of all the bullshit.
As well as detailing the contents of the memoir, the documentary is set to contain “never-before-told truths” about the Pistols from the band members and exclusive interviews with rock n roll legends from the era.and Nick Mead . The film will be produced by Matlock, Jessica Bennett “I have followed the Sex Pistols for years and I really enjoyed Glen’s book. He gets into the early years of the Pistols and how they shaped rock and punk during that era.
“In the landscape that is music, music that has changed the world, The Sex Pistols created a revolution,” said Nick Mead co-director. “They made one album, and Glen Matlock wrote the songs that defined that revolution. The time has come to tell his story.” Added Matlock: “Being a teenager in the Sex Pistols was a life-changing experience. I am thrilled to share the stories from my book in this documentary with the backing of this talented group of filmmakers.”
