The Runaways

The Runaways
It's 1975 and they're about to explode.
Bowie better watch out!

This biopic takes a look at how an outrageous promoter put together the rock group The Runaways, a group of teenage girls from broken homes. Set back in the 1970s, they were at the front of a new wave in rock music which also saw the rise of punk rock after them. Moulding the band took some doing, as some of the girls were a little delicate, but the end result was a worldwide success, until the drugs and sex took their toll. Expect a lot of bad language.
