The Germs Biopic Hitting Theatres

Posted by Michael on June 1, 2008

What We Do is Secret, the long-in-the-works biopic about The Germs is due for screenings across the U.S. this Summer.  The picture was co-written and directed by Rodger Grossman, who spent ten years trying to get the movie made before gaining the approval of the estate of late Germs frontman Darby Crash. Actor Shane West portrays Crash, who died of a heroin overdose at the age of twenty-two in 1980. Orginal guitarist Pat Smear handled the music production for the film and taught the remaining actors to play instruments; their recordings were used in the film. The following screenings are scheduled: 8/8 - New York City, NY 8/15 - Chicago, IL 8/23 - Los Angeles, CA Source: Billboard
