The Hollywood Runaways

If you haven’t heard about it already, it is partly a “coming-of-age” story and stars Twilight diva Kristen Stewart and Dakota “she’s-to-good-of-an-actor-for-her age” Fanning. The rock biopic follows the start, the rise and the fall of ’70s the first all-girl rock band that included Joan Jett and Cherie Currie. It’s pretty darn gritty, rebellious, anarchic and grimy – and that makes it a lot of fun!

Check out the movie trailer after the jump:

And please note the intense platforms, heavy eye makeup, skintight jumpsuits, glossy lips, rouge-streaked cheeks, feathered hair, and ’70s-soaked Bowie androgyny. That’s not too far off from what we’re seeing today.
