….”It’s been called dead since the ’70s,” filmmaker Susan Dynner says. “And clearly it’s not. There’s still kids getting into it, there are still kids that have a lot to say. These bands have been touring for 30 years, and there are still audiences who want to go see them.”
While there have been great documentaries made about 1970s punk icons like the Ramones, the Clash and the Sex Pistols, those that came after have been underrepresented on the big screen. Dynner, a 1988 UW graduate, aims to change that with her new documentary, “Punk’s Not Dead,” which will play as part of the Wisconsin Film Festival at 10 p.m. Saturday at the Bartell Theatre.
