DESCRIPTION:British director and co-writer Alex Cox (*Repo Man*) has said t
 hat his biographical drama of Sex Pistols bassist Sid Vicious and girlfrie
 nd\, Nancy Spungen\, was less about punk rock and more a cautionary tale a
 bout drugs. No kidding. A then-unknown Gary Oldman is riveting as one half
  of the ill-fated couple that seems bent on self-destruction in a way that
 ’s far worse than Nicolas Cage’s alcoholic in *Leaving Las Vegas*. Yes
 \, it’s set in the British punk scene that spawned the Pistols in the 19
 70s\, with all its nihilism in full glory (and some cool cameos from Iggy 
 Pop\, Nico and Courtney Love)\, but the couple’s inability to pull itsel
 f out of a downward spiral of drugs and alcohol is the real cautionary tal
 e Cox tells powerfully in this now 40-year-old cult classic. — *Doug Pul
