Two girls run away from a mental institution and forge a relationship on the streets of New York. They soon begin enjoying their punk-rock life until the powers that be start nosing around, looking for them, unsettling their already delicate mental states. Will the Sleez Girls be torn apart? Or will they tear themselves apart? –IMDb
One of the best soundtracks of all time. I love this film's energy and movement. Even with heavy editing, it's subversive nature (namely, the sapphic bond between the two leads and its strong anti-radio/anti-television stance) still seeps through. The 'Life During Wartime' sequence is one of the great musical moments in all of film.
Great soundtrack, Ramones, Talkingheads, Gary Numan. Reminded me The Fabulous Stains. That's New York the year I was born.
Since I suck at writing reviews, I’ll leave it to Jenni Olson and shall shamelessly copy/paste her superb read review
