"I think the film's wonderful," Stephens tells Rolling Stone. "We were a band for four years and we recorded three records, and losing a member after each record � so we were down to Alex [Chilton] and me. And then we broke up and let it sit for 17-18 years, and got back together because there was an audience that developed over that period of time. I think [the filmmakers] did a great job�"

A high-point, sure to delight fans, is footage of the original quartet rehearsing in Chilton's parents' living room. "[It] gives you an idea of how bands adapt to environments and parents adapt to having children in bands," says Stephens.
