Lemmy (subtitled "49% motherf**ker. 51% son of a bitch") is a 2010 rockumentary film profile of the English rock musician Ian "Lemmy" Kilmister, founder, bassist, and lead vocalist of the British heavy metal band Motörhead.
Lemmy was directed and produced by Greg Olliver and Wes Orshoski and features interviews with friends, peers, and admirers such as Slash and Duff McKagan of Guns N' Roses and Velvet Revolver, Ozzy Osbourne, James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Robert Trujillo, and Kirk Hammett of Metallica, David Ellefson of Megadeth, and Scott Ian of Anthrax. It also features Dave Vanian and Captain Sensible of the Damned, Peter Hook of Joy Division and New Order, Marky Ramone of the Ramones, and Nik Turner and Dave Brock of Lemmy's former band Hawkwind. The filmmakers were able to capture many candid moments as colleagues such as Dave Grohl and Billy Bob Thornton converse with Lemmy in bars and recording studios.
