The film is truly remarkable (it’s Penn’s debut) but certainly not a 5-star film (pallini). A raw and stripped-down direction with an excellent cast (though Golino is honestly the only one who doesn’t hold up against the others). Then, at least Charles Bronson (in the role of the father) and Dennis Hopper (in the role of the stoned bartender) deserved a mention in your review.

I don't like the first 3, let alone these!

where is the sixth star?

On franchetto U profffessure, go back to elementary school and be alternative with the 8-year-olds… you’re the one who always wants the last word, shove your punky shit up your ass and then fart.
From madam wong’s to starwood
To the whiskey on the strip
You can hear the crashing, blasting strum
Of bands that come to be real hip
And get a record contract
From a talent scout some day
They’ll sell their ass, their cocks and balls
They’ll take the check ’n’ walk away
If they’re lucky they’ll get famous
For a week or two perhaps
They’ll buy some ugly clothes to wear
And hope the business don’t collapse
Before some stupid magazine
Decides they’re really good
They’re a tinsel town rebellion band
From downtown hollywood

Tinsel town rebellion, tinsel town rebellion band
It’s a little bitty tinsel town rebellion
A tinsel town rebellion band

They used to play all kinds of stuff
And some of it was nice
Some of it was musical
But then they took some guy’s advice
To get a record deal, he said,
They would have to be more punk
Forget their chops and play real dumb
Or else they would be sunk
So off they go to s.i.r. to learn some stupid riffs
And practice all their poses
In between their powder sniffs

Chop a line now, snort it up now
And when they think they’ve got it
They launch a new career
Who gives a fuck if what they play
Is somewhat insincere

Tinsel town rebellion, tinsel town rebellion band
A tinsel town rebellion,
A tinsel town rebellion band
Did you know that in tinsel town the people down there
Think that substance is a bore
And if your new wave group looks good
They’ll hurry on back for more
Of leather groups and plastic groups
And groups that look real queer
The tinsel town aficionados
Come to see and not to hear
But then again this system works
As perfect as a dream
It works for all of those record company pricks
Who come to skim the cream
From the cesspools of excitement
Where jim morrison once stood
It’s the tinsel town rebellion
From downtown hollywood

Is everybody happy?
Oh never mind!
No problem!

Count me in, I would have given it a 4.5 :-) the soul sacrifice from Woodstock is spectacular! Plastichino, you have a lot of fun always being harsh on my comments, huh! Funny bastard, why don’t you give a 1 to this album of your (among so many) hated Santana? When will we read your review on your little alternative bands?

no no Deep, I listen to punk (with definitely less frequency than when I was a kid, but I do listen to it)... but Franchino is definitely unbearable; he knows 3 subgenres and thinks he can be a professor and that one cannot express their opinions.

suck francchetto and listen to your cheap panketto and act like you're the alternative of this dick

I can't believe it!

Great beautiful dischello then there's "Soul Sacrifice"!
