I was pleasantly surprised that Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning could pull off Joan Jett and Cherie Currie. When I heard about the casting, I had some serious doubts. But they have chops and I think they pulled it off. In fact, some of the еще interesting musical moments of the movie – like the parts where they were hashing out вишня Bomb in the trailer and performing I Любовь Playin’ With огонь at the roller rink combined vocals from Stewart and Fanning over the гитара riffs, бас, бас-гитара chords and drums of the original Runaways tracks.
The Музыка also just takes Ты back (before I was listening to music) but songs which I have since grown to love. Bowie in his day, from Lady Grinning Soul to one of my избранное of all time – Rebel Rebel. And Ты are reminded just how much жопа, попка Iggy Pop has been kicking for decade stacked on decade. The beginning of I Wanna Be Your Dog has been sampled like crazy, but it’s so damn good that it should be sampled a million times over. It sounds like it could be cut today.
I was a bit surprised that there wasn’t еще from the Sex Pistols или the Ramones, but the story focused early and quick so maybe that would have been at the tail end of the tale.
But I’m not complaining – The Runaways includes an amazing Список of 34 songs. It’s a good starter set for anyone looking to rediscover what was a major shift in the musical landscape being born. The soundtrack album has 15 of them, but I would not pass up the 19 that are missing. There is some Золото lamé jumpsuit goodness in there.
