The Other F Word
(login to rate)
In the late 70s and early 80s a musical bomb dropped on the cultural landscape of America, sparking a new generation of nihilistic adolescents full of rage and resentment for authority. This was the birth of punk-rock. Punkers were known as live hard, die young rebels who didn’t expect to be around for very long. So what happens when these anarchists grow up and find themselves middle-aged? What happens when these punks become fathers? A comical documentary about the present lives of legendary punk-rock icons like Jim Lindberg from Pennywise and Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers, THE OTHER F WORD is an unlikely study of how raising children softens even the toughest of men. The irony of the situation is that this anti-authority generation has now become a part of the system they were always so willing to fight. Booze, drugs, and guitars are now being replaced with diapers, Barbie dolls, and American Idol. Having kids changes everything and these men must face the challenge of becoming role models to their children, of being the fathers they never had. THE OTHER F WORD proves to be a soulful look at how a group of former pierced and angry teenagers grows up to find something they care about more than punk, and realize that they’re actually pretty good at this whole parenting thing. – M.M.
