We Are Movie Geeks certainly think Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning look the parts of Joan Jett and Cherie Currie! See what they have to say in their Sundance Review of 'The Runaways'.
Sundance 2010 Preview: THE RUNAWAYS
THE RUNAWAYS brings us a child actor all grown up, and a teenage actor all grown up in Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart. I didn’t think I would be really impressed with Dakota Fanning once her cute little child acting wore off, but after seeing her in PUSH I was quite impressed. Lets not even get started on my love affair with Kristen Stewart…even in TWILIGHT, but especially in ADVENTURELAND. How they will do playing rock legends Cherie Currie and Joan Jett have yet to be seen… they look the part, and I have a feeling its going to kick some major ass.
OFFICIAL SYNOPSIS:
Of all the bands to come out of the 1970s Los Angeles music scene, The Runaways are by far the most uniquely fascinating. This is partially due to their music but more so to the fact that they were teenage girls whose wild and reckless lifestyle was the stuff of legend.
Focusing on the duo of guitarist/vocalist Joan Jett and lead vocalist Cherie Currie as they navigate a rocky road of touring and record-label woes, the film chronicles the band’s formation as well as their meteoric rise under the malevolent eye of an abusive manager.
THE RUNAWAYS plays at the following times:
6:30 PM Sun, Jan 24 Eccles Theatre
8:30 AM Mon, Jan 25 Library Center Theatre
9:00 PM Sat, Jan 30 Temple Theatre
