It's 1975 and girls don't play electric guitar. Say what?
Well, Joan Jett isn't your ordinary Marsha, Jan or Cindy. And neither is Cherie Currie. They're brought together by wacko genius music promoter Kim Fowley. He tells them their music is not about women's lib. Women's libidos is more like it. The rest is rock 'n' roll history.
"The Runaways" is a typical rock music biopic — drugs, sex and rock 'n' roll — still the story of the girl group that crashed through barriers is so compelling that movie-goers won't give a fig. Stars, Kristen Stewart (Joan) and Dakota Fanning (Cherie), are joined by real rock 'n' roll royalty. Riley Keough, Elvis' real life granddaughter plays the part of Cherie's tamer twin sister.
How cool is that!
