Frequently Asked Questions: Q: What's the current status of the movie? A: WHAT WE DO IS SECRET has just been acquired by Peace Arch Entertainment and will play across the U.S. at theaters. We premiered at the Los Angeles Film Festival, and went on to play a lot of other exciting festivals across the U.S. and Canada (Newport Beach ***winner, excellence in filmmaking***, Philadelphia ***winner, Shane West, Rising Star Award***, Noise Pop, Gasparilla in Tampa ***winner, Shane West, special mention actor***, Cleveland, Phoenix, & Big Island Film Festivals). We will also play at the upcoming Fantasia, Brisbane and Perth Revelation Film Festivals.Q: What's this movie about? A: It's a biographical movie about Darby Crash and The Germs. It starts with Darby creating the concept of The Germs in 1975 and ends with his death in 1980. Through this perspective, the movie will show the birth of punk rock in Hollywood and the rise of hardcore.Q: Who is playing Darby/Lorna/Pat/Don etc? A: The cast includes Shane West (Darby), Bijou Phillips (Lorna), Rick Gonzales (Pat), and Noah Segan (Don).Q: What's up with the music in the movie? A: There are nine Germs songs performed by the actors themselves who learned to play their instruments under the direction of Pat Smear (original Germs guitarist). There are also performances by actors playing The Screamers and Black Flag. Don and Lorna were also in the practice room and on set with the actors to help insure authenticity.Q: Is this movie gonna suck ass? A: Maybe. It depends whose ass.Q: Who else is involved? A: This is writer/director Rodger Grossman's first film. He's worked on this project for over ten years, interviewed and worked with as many of the important figures in the scene as possible, and is committed to telling the real story. Rhino Films is producing with Coalition Film. One of the producers/writers was Darby's best friend Michelle Baer Ghaffari (check her out in the Decline of Western Civilization with Darby in the kitchen). Everybody making this movie is deeply committed to doing this subject matter justice. You can see everybody else that is involved at:What We Do Is Secret IMDB SiteIf you have a chance, leave us a comment on the message board. But remember, nobody likes a hater. Haters ultimately die from cancer. And even if you hate us, we really don't want you to die from cancer. That would suck.Q: Where can I get a copy of Decline Of Western Civilization? A:I have no idea! It's out of print. I think Penelope is trying to re-release it soon. Let's hope so. It's an amazing movie!Q: Is it going to be good? A: Hell yeah. It's great. Everybody says so. Even my mom. And she hates movies. Q: Can I have Shane's phone number? A: Make me an offer.Q: Can I have a Germs burn? A: You can only get one from somebody that already has one. Maybe if you are extra sweet to Lorna or Michelle. Q: Is this the myspace for the The Germs? A: You didn't see the real trailer. Just something we cut because we had way too much time on our hands. We're cutting the real trailer now. Prepare to have your mind blown. Q: You're not punk. And I'm telling everyone. A: That's not a question. It's a statement. Don't be a dick. Q: Are the Germs going to play in my city/town/backyard? A: I don't know. And no, I don't have any extra tickets. But here's a good review of the 12/3/05 show:Sugarbuzz Magazine 12/3/05 Show ReviewQ: It's really fucked you guys are making this movie. A: Also not a question. Cut us a little slack and reserve your judgment until the movie comes out. Then you can hammer us all you want. But people are liking this movie a lot. Chances are pretty good this will be your favorite movie ever. Q: How can I find out more information about this movie? A: Here's some good articles:Hollywood Reporter ArticleWashington Post Article |
