      A main melody and three chords

      The punk burned from strawberries has spread for more than half a month, and the punk bands at the music festival impressed me deeply. Retro-style visuals, hoarse dead vocals, or a strong sense of rhythm. After I came back, I revisited NANA. Because of the Nanjing lock, I found this film by chance. To be honest, I felt a little uncomfortable just looking at the screenshots of the plot before watching the movie. It is also the prototype of the lotus in Yazawa Ai's mouth. Please be more handsome!...

      It's a love so cheap that there's only love left

      "I can't live without you"
      Sid said to Nancy.
      Not without your body, not without your money, not without your drugs, but just without you. In my opinion, at the very beginning, they had nothing left. The constant drug use made their bodies weak and weak, their homes were filthy and chaotic, and they had no money and no dignity. All they had left was company. Beside each other, there is only love left, and only the cheapest love is left.

      This is a love that is so cheap that...

      When a bitch fucks you, are you sucking that pleasure?

      #SEX

      "Idol-like men, you will fall in love with a bitch one day"

      Why are all the idols in the world men? Don't think, just take a look at the world of Marlon Brando, everything is reverted to the DNA instinct of promiscuous breeding driven by primitive animal hormones, he is like a lion king, leading the hunting lionesses, making love, breeding, the only thing to do The main thing is to fight off other provocateurs, to maintain the genetic conveyor belt that uses a phallus...

      How to tell a good story

      This movie is very powerful, because it can make me who don't know punk, or even don't like punk very much, have the desire to tap its power.
      I said this at the beginning because I didn't want to pretend.
      Because it was said to be Uncle GO's debut, so I went. (Long live the old man!) {Insert: I always think that it is really great to let first-line actors act in biographies, it allows more young people to come into contact with classics and history. But first of all if the acting is...

      Another dead in youth

      Sid Vicious.

      To be honest I really don't like that way of life.
      Sid represents the nihilistic generation of young people in Britain in the 1970s, with children in fancy clothes banging on the glass of high-end cars everywhere on the street. He is a punk star, a parasite in the eyes of his parents, a blind drug addict, a resident of a cheap Chelsea hotel, and has a groupie girlfriend, Nancy.
      No money, no want to die. Such a life is depressing. Waking up in a hotel bed...

      It just shows the "collapse" of punk youth, kissing in the garbage heap, and getting lost in the drug heap. As for the driving force of love, there is no need to explain too much, it is just the consolation in the chaotic life, but the charm related to music is not seen. It makes the two look a little bit second, and Nancy's role is also a bit...

      Is Gary Oldman playing sid? ? I didn't even see it! !...

    • By Rachelle 2022-03-27 09:01:20

      What makes me feel most lost, and I always think of it recently, is when Sid got out of prison and got into a car on a grass and kissed Nancy passionately. At that time, Nancy was already dead. The child behind caught up with the car that drove away and shouted at Sid: sid where are you going you don't know that guy at all sid vicious died of...

    "Sid and Nancy" reproduces the death of the body and the resurrection of the spirit of Sid and Nancy, and tells the legendary story of Sid and Nancy from a very realistic perspective. Gary Oldman plays the role of Sid for the first time in his career. The acting skills are somewhat in line with Sid's temperament. In terms of music, perhaps due to copyright issues, the band did not use the Sex Guns songs widely, but audiences could...
