Wild Boys - The Story of Duran Duran
Duran Duran came out of Birmingham and conquered the world during the 1980s.
Originally a New Romantic band in full make-up and cossack pants, they rapidly
became bedroom pinups for a generation of teenage girls.
Led by Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes and John Taylor, Duran Duran dominated the
British and American charts in the mid 1980s with classic singles such as Rio,
Save a Prayer and Wild Boys. Pioneers of the MTV-style promo video - from the
X-rated Girls on Film to Raiders of the Lost Arc spoof Hungry Like the Wolf -
Duran Duran were the 80s equivalent of the Beatles in America and outsold
Spandau Ballet and Wham! in their pomp.
Sixty million records later, Le Bon and Rhodes are seen touring America with
their Pop Trash project from the early 2000s. The documentary reflects on the
heady heights of Duran Duran's career, the cracks in their make-up plus the
effects of sex, drugs and fame on ordinary boys from working class backgrounds.
Apart from the key Durannies - Le Bon, Rhodes and John Taylor - the programme
also features celebrity interviews with Debbie Harry, Yasmin Le Bon, Duran
Duran managers Paul and Michael Berrow, Claudia Schiffer, Nile Rodgers and Lou
Reed.
