Greenwich Entertainment Acquires NA Rights To ‘Angelheaded Hipster’ Doc On “Ultra-Charismatic” Marc Bolan And Band T. Rex


The Marc Bolan-T. Rex doc 'Angelheaded Hipster,' about the influential British rock star and his band, has been acquired by Greenwich Entertainment.

Among the recording artists who credit the influence of T. Rex are R.E.M., Joy Division, the Smiths, the Ramones, Kate Bush, and Siouxsie and the Banshees. Rex is a monster and Marc [Bolan], down on his knees in the last ecstatic throes of sheer carnal crotch rock, like a sinister little angel out of the densest and most exotic prison visions of Jean Genet, with glitter round his eyes and stars in his hair and dressed in satin and sequins and girl’s shoes from Anello and Davide’s, Marc is the Queen of the Hop, right in the middle of the Mick Jagger gap.” The acquisition deal was negotiated by Greenwich’s Ed Arentz with Submarine’s Dan Braun and Ben Schwartz representing the filmmakers.
