KenHOST
both of them sort of very mediocre films tommy especially gets just really avant-garde at times and and just weird oh it's so weird pete towns is one weird dude the standout performance in tommy which is worth watching the entire movie for and then you don't necessarily have to watch the rest of it is tina turner as the acid queen

And were there any particular books or sort of films that you would also take on your desert island if you sort of had to grab, you know, collect a few bits as well? Was there any particular, because, you know, punk was quite influenced by Taxi Driver and Main Streets, wasn't it? In sort of that sort of 70s period, the Robert De Niro and Martin Scorsese.
David EastaughHOST
Were there any sort of films that you would often go back to and just watch again? They don't even have to be music related.
