Blown to smithereens.






The other day my friend Miss Jamé McCraw brought the movie, "Smithereens" to my attention. It was shot in the early 80's and the protagonist, Wren, is this young punk girl who tears through the gritty streets of New York in her red Chuck Tailors hellbent on starting her own band by rubbing elbows with other punk rockers, hoping to siphon some of their glory unto herself. Its like a sad yet cute love story for skeezy punkers.
