Biography
A graduate of the National Film School, British director/screenwriter Julien Temple is noted for his music-oriented features and documentaries. He first gained critical acclaim with his 1980 rockumentary look at the Sex Pistols in
The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle (the film was originally to have been directed by
Russ Meyer, but creative differences over the interpretation of Temple's script led him to take over the film himself). Fictional features include
Earth Girls Are Easy (1989) and
Bullet (1996). ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
