Review of Sid and Nancy (1986) by Josh H — 25 Mar 2008
â??Sid & Nancyâ?? a film directed Alex Cox that stars Gary Oldman and Chloe Webb. The film â??Sid & Nancyâ?? is about bassist Sid Vicious who part of the 1970â??s punk band The Sex Pistols, and Chloe Webb plays Nancy, Sidâ??s wife.
The movie takes place in 1970â??s London and in New York when punk rock was vastly popular with all the big name bands hitting the air waves like The Clash, Sex Pistols, and Ramones. The movie takes us into the drug, and crazy world of Sid & Nancy and how the only love they had for each other by doing drugs and getting high most of time and getting drunk.
Some of the scenes in this movie are a little disturbing to watch like when Sid is cutting himself with razor blade but it shows us how life for Sid was different from everyone else. â??Sid & Nancyâ?? has some great acting from Gary Oldman, and Chole Webb, and even the soundtrack has a nice touch to it.
A good movie if your into the whole punk craze in the 70â??s, or you like punk rock music (Like I do) or just want to learn more about Sid Vicious, then is the film for you.
