Description

Kenneth Barlow, a washed-up and forgotten music manager who once organized the Rolling Stones’ tours in his heyday, is desperate to achieve another major success and turn an unknown musician into an overnight star. To do so, he picks out the naive and fresh-faced Moody Mudinsky, intending to use him to replace the popular punk scene.

Barlow isn’t interested in the boy; all that matters to him are headlines and profit. With the help of an accomplice, he organizes street fights and riots, leaving no stone unturned to achieve his selfish goal. However, when a young girl is killed during a staged assassination attempt on his protégé, the situation spirals completely out of control and reality strikes back mercilessly.

    Your my white star man

    Terrific movie with a very unhinged Dennis Hopper on full throttle. As always the 4K looks great, wish we got more PL releases from them (hint hint).
