Review of Performance (1970) by Cj C — 01 Oct 2011
Chas: [to Turner/Mick Jagger] "You're a comical little geezer. You'll look funny when you're fifty.".
Incorrectly billed as a Mick Jagger flick, when its clearly a James Fox vehicle, its unusually good for a 70's film. Fox has an Alain Delon vibe and theres plenty of violence, sex & drugs with very little rock 'n roll. Jagger's portrayal of Turner is mind-bendingly perfect & probably his best performance ever. A cult classic with a great soundtrack.
Also, be sure to see my uploaded clip of Mick's, "A Memo From Turner.".
