Assaulting audiences with a blend of rock, blues and R&B, the band planted the seeds for what would be called punk in the decades that followed. The film chronicles the story of one of the greatest rock-n-roll bands of all time. "Jarmusch’s contention that the Stooges were the best rock’n’roll band ever is the starting point for a wonderfully eloquent documentary; not only does Iggy Pop contribute (verbally and facially) articulate reminiscences about the rise and fall of the band, but there’s a lovely mix of archive footage, interviews, photos and even animation to accompany the music."
