It's all about image

Rating: 7/10 (29 November 2001)

An interesting look into the world of Glammer Rock, or so I guess it tried. A decent story about finding your true identity, Velvet Goldmine is all about image. The colors in this film are is slick and stylish as velvet. The acting is the same, with an outstanding, crazy like hell performance by Ewan McGregor. Sadly, the film may be black listed as being "too gay" and for a "gay" audience only. Fact is, Velvet Goldmine is a true "art house" movie that draws the "colorful" viewer.
