Featured review
I saw this movie for the first time tonight and I must admit, I wasn't expecting much but it left me almost crying in the end, and recommending it to all of my family and friends. I don't claim to know what the 80s punk scene was like, especially in Utah, but regardless of whether punk life was portrayed correctly or not in this movie (I think most of you who bitch about that aspect wouldn't know anyway), it was written extremely well and the acting was just incredible.
Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMatthew Lillard's character, Stevo, was originally to have bleached-blond hair, but when he got the bleach job, the peroxide burned Lillard's scalp, leaving a hideous mess. Dyeing his hair blue was a way to hide it.
- GoofsAfter Stevo yells at the kid with the Union Jack patch, the kid walks off in the background and his jacket has the Operation Ivy logo on it--a band that was formed in 1987. The movie takes place in 1985.
