Review title: A must-see rock film!
Product review: I did notice the change in aspect ratio after the title sequence, but I didn't find it that distracting. The picture quality itself is fine, and the film is about as good as a rock film can get. It reminds me sort of like a rock version of The Harder They Come--untrained actors, location scenes rather than studio sets, dialogue you have to listen closely to to understand. And most of all, they are both unvarnished looks at the seamy side of fame and the entertainment business. Slade doesn't resort to crime, but plenty of shady activity surrounds them as the reach the toppermost of the poppermost, only to find it isn't exactly what they want out of life. In the midst of the pre-punk glam seventies, this demystification of the rock world must have been a real slap in the face for audiences. It remains a bracingly enjoyable film today. Don't miss it!
