The Smiths The Complete Picture
Thirteen Smiths recordings half of them in a club with a live audience These alternate with five rock videos two directed by Derek Jarman Panic and Ask two by Tim Broad Girlfriend in a Coma and Stop Me and one by Paula Grief and Richard Levine How Soon Is Now It concludes with Jarmans short film The Queen Is Dead with a threesong soundtrack The rock videos particularly Jarmans are filled with multiple and superimposed images changing tints and little narrative coherence they get their pace from the musics rhythm Androgyny dancing children belching smokestacks graffiti angry young men a waif in a cap collages of modern alienation
