Excellent, Exciting, Erotic

Rating: 10/10 (13 March 2005)

The review that's up on the index page was written by someone who didn't understand the movie, who doesn't understand playing music, and who doesn't understand the seventies. I am an ex-musician of the period of this film, and I am still excited from seeing it for the first time tonight (yes, it IS seven years later). Everyone nailed their parts, especially the major male leads, and the music was perfect. I found this film to be authentic and extremely good. I recommend it highly. Those familiar with the music of Lou Reed and Iggy Pop will recognize the ambiance of the tunes, and one is also reminded of David Bowie. The glimpses we are given of the business of the music business are very clever and well-done. For bisexual males and ex-glam musicians, this film is (as they say) riveting, electrifying!
