Madison Sundance Film Fest USA Entry Announced

Sundance is dispatching a clutch of filmmakers from Utah to roadshow their films at select venues across the country and it has been announced that Madison will be hosting The Runaways, a biopic about the rock band of the same name that spawned Joan Jett and Lita Ford.

When I first heard the news, I thought it was a documentary but it is not. Instead we'll be seeing a 15 year-old Dakota Fanning donning the lingerie for her part as Cherie Currie. Uff da!

Anyone interested in The Runaways should head over to my music podcast where a concert of theirs from July 1976 is to be had.
