Sid And Nancy: Love Kills

"In the late 70's, when I was living in Los Angeles,  there was a strange double murder/suicide in New York.  Sid Vicious, a pop singer, was arrested for the murder of his fiancée, Nancy Spungen.  He committed suicide before he could be brought to trial.  They were both junkies and their lives were pretty bleak.  But why take things to such extremes?  I don't know.  Never mind the bollocks. Watch the film."
                                                                            -Alex Cox (Director of Sid and Nancy)
