Film Fun.

Just a quick note...I watched Prey For Rock And Roll the other night and it is yet another fine Gina Gershon film with a gratuitous lesbian scene. Seriously though, it's not a bad film. It kind of captures the aging rocker rather well and my only real complaint is that the lyrics to the songs kind of suck, but I guess it was adapted from a play so that can be explained. Within the economy of the stage I can see how the songs must have served to forward the story line, but in the movie I would've just preferred some kick-ass rock and/or roll.

(Fun Fact: The guy who co-wrote the Hedwig music also helped tighten these songs up, so musically they definitely have kick...it's just the lyrics that sag a tad.)

Regardless, check out the film as it does have some weight and doesn't resort to a cop-out ending. In the world of rock and/or roll fables this is a rare thing indeed!
