Happy Birthday, Penelope Spheeris! Party on to the director who gave us "Wayne's World," teaching generations how to headbang properly and reminding us that life's greatest wisdom can indeed come from two dudes in a basement. Your comedic genius has made sure we never look at Queen’s "Bohemian Rhapsody" quite the same way again.And let's not forget your groundbreaking documentary trilogy, "The Decline of Western Civilization." You captured punk rock chaos and heavy metal madness with fearless authenticity—proving once and for all that civilization might decline, but great filmmaking endures forever. Here's hoping your birthday is excellent—party time!
