Arthouse Alert: See "Lemmy" in Philadelphia Thursday

This documentary focusing on the hard-living frontman of heavy metal legends Motörhead features interviews with dozens of his contemporaries and fans (who are often one and the same): Dave Grohl, Slash, Johnny Knoxville, Jarvis Cocker, and more. Ian “Lemmy” Kilmeister, having survived decades of abuse to his kidneys, liver, and eardrums, agreed to allow himself to be filmed for several years, warts and all. After premiering at SXSW last year, the film has been making its way through the country on limited runs, and this showing in Philly is a one-night only deal. -Finn Cohen
