Editorial Review: Product Description: What We Do Is Secret is the true-life story of Darby Crash (Shane West), who became an L.A. punk icon with his band The Germs. With his friends, Lorna Doom (Bijou Phillips), Pat Smear (Rick Gonzalez), and Don Bolles (Noah Segan), Darby Crash completely transformed the L.A punk scene, while sacrificing everyone he loved, his career, and ultimately his life Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Mixed feelings were a given...First, I'm not going to pretend that I was around LA when all of this went down... I was in New Orleans, and I didn't really get into punk until 1980 or '81, when Black Flag came through. Darby Crash was already dead by then, so I never knew him, met him, or even saw the Germs. With that said, the fact that the surviving Germs are happy with Shane West and "What We Do is Secret" is enough for me. I'll be honest though, I would've liked to have seen some more of the earlier years. ...

I believe that you can't dismiss things that you don't care for unless you try to understand what they are about. I hope that the movie was fairly accurate because it explains why someone might create music with so much "hurt" in it. I gave it three stars because that is a neutral number and although the material was one star for me it did a five star ... Read More Rating: - I'm Not a Commodity (or maybe I am)I liked punk back in the late 1970's but since I didn't live in LA I never had the chance to actually see a live Germs show. I have seen The Decline of Western Civilization as well as plenty of other Germ performances on video which of course isn't quite the same thing as seeing a live Germs show but its probably as close as most of us will come to seeing and feeling what punk in all of its filth and fury was all about. The godfathers of punk were Lou Reed and David Bowie and Iggy Pop. ... Read More Rating: - NOT the GermsIf this movie has actually helped some people discover the Germs and the old school punk scene, then I guess that's a good thing. BUT... This movie has nothing to do with reality. Far from a realistic portrait, this film presents Darby Crash as a nice, but misunderstood kid who could just as easily have been a supporting character on "Dawson's Creek" and makes the L.A. punk scene look like an episode of "90210." Read "Lexicon Devil" or watch "Decline of Western ... Read More Rating: - Great Film!This movie is a stellar example of vision, persistence and character on the part of director Roger Grossman, Shane West and Bijou Phillips. They brought forth a forgotten gem of American history that was overlooked by the assassination of John Lennon in 1980. I give it four stars because the price is too high for a DVD. It's not even a special edition. Buyer beware: Lot's of drug use and mature situations. Browse for similar items by category:
