Viewing Notes

A docudrama about Darby Crash, lead singer of seminal L.A. punk band The Germs, What We Do Is Secret falters in places but does a decent job of telling Darby’s story without glorifying him too much.

The “interview” style portions maybe bugged me the most. Still, an interesting watch, especially if you enjoy punk.
