Rock and roll movies session 2 "Streets Of Fire & Rock and Roll Highschool


Raven Shaddock (Willem Dafoe), along with his gang of merciless biker friends, kidnaps rock singer Ellen Aim (Diane Lane). Ellen's former lover, soldier-for-hire Tom Cody (Michael Paré), happens to be passing through town on a visit. In an attempt to save his star act, Ellen's manager, Billy Fish (Rick Moranis), hires Tom to rescue Ellen. Billy and Tom, along with former soldier McCoy (Amy Madigan), battle through dangerous cityscapes, determined to get Ellen back.

A Rock n Roll Fable. Neon streets in the rain.
Questions of honor. Dazzling editing. an alternate 1950s/1980s. Eniigmatic. My favorite movie. 




A teenager (P.J. Soles) and her friends get even with their principal to music by the Ramones.

PJ soles greatest role. The Ramones at there best. Cartoon comedy. Rats with Mohawks.  Mary Woronov. Etched in Stone in the landmark mountain of teen movies.
