Follow Ups:
Yes on REPO MAN. A big ??? on the others. I know I've seen some of them but they must not have made much of an impression.
"Velvet Goldmine" is highly recommended. Awesome soundtrack. "Straight to Hell" is another Alex Cox film featuring Joe Strummer, Elvis Costello, The Pogues and a pre-nosejob Courteney Love. What an obscene harridan. "Absolute Beginners" was directed by Julien Temple and features David Bowie and some strange production numbers. Temple also did "The Filth and the Fury" about The Sex Pistols and those that like "Sid and Nancy" (Alex Cox again) should check it out. "Dazed and Confused"? Well, it's a good period piece and captures the spirit of the time and has a ripping soundtrack.
