| SID AND NANCY (1986) | |
|
|
The legendary bassist Sid Vicious (Gary Oldman) from the Sex Pistols meets Nancy Spungen (Chloe Webb), a heroin addict, who draws Sid into the addiction of heroin and emotional turmoil. Their relationship is a difficult one that seems to be next to parasitical where Nancy feeds off of Sid's acquired addition causing an emotional tug-of-war. Eventually, Sid attempts to go on tour with the Sex Pistols in the US, but the band cannot keep together due to Sid's gradually declining performances on stage due to the drugs. Sid gives a feeble attempt to launch his solo career with Nancy as his manager, but this too is ill fated. This turns out to be a dance that Sid cannot keep up with, and the future gives the impression of being dark. Sid and Nancy is a film that provides an outstanding performance by the actors and at the end awards the audience with a worthwhile experience. |
