Still Crazy for Strange Fruit.
One of the best films I have seen in ages, it had me laughing and giggling all the way through. Basic storyline - Glam rock band splits in the 1970s due to the excessives of rock life and internal agruments. Twenty years later the band reunite for a reunion festival, with all the old frictions still going strong. Can they make a go of it this time or will they "bollocks it up" again. The experience writing of Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais coupled with superb acting by Jimmy Nail, Timothy Spall and especially Bill Nighy makes it a film well worth watching!
