The Runaways: Girls Just Wanna Have Punk

I’d like to be the music expert who knows that The Runaways were one of the most influential girl bands of all time—but to be honest, when I saw this trailer, I was like, wait, Joan Jett was in a band with Lita Ford??

If the preview has anything to say about the film, this is definitely a ride I’m going to want to take—regardless of the fact that I find Dakota Fanning creepy (and far too evolved for her own good)—or that Kristen Stewart hasn’t shown any talent since Into the Wild.

The good news? Michael Shannon is in it, and if you don’t know who that is, you should check out a little known movie from 2007 called Shotgun Stories.

I can’t wait for The Runaways to hit theaters. From the way people dressed in 1975 to the cars they leapt in and out of, this is the kind of film that makes me yearn for summer.
