Tonight's DVD: Velvet Goldmine (1998)

This one seemed to be based on David Bowie and Iggy Pop ...sometimes loosely, sometimes more tightly and sometimes complete fiction. It was a strange one, and I thought that it suffered in editing. The time shifts were hard to follow sometimes. Of course the music was very good and Ewan MacGregor puts in a great performance as the Iggy character, but I think it compares somewhat poorly against the other glam music fest I've seen recently, Hedwig and the Angry Inch (which I was told is being played at a local theater with live actors, ala Rocky Horror).
