Aspiring rock chicks (and heavy hitting actresses) Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning chart the rise of the Runaways. From seeing Kristen in films like 'Speak', I already knew her to be an important new actress; however, I was blown away by Dakota Fanning - she morphs effortlessly from her previous quite 'junior' roles into a sexy, drug-addled young singer. Michael Shannon, as the auteur Kim Fowley, is excellent too.
The staging of the concert footage, a key element of the film, has high prodution value and Stewart/Fanning have clearly practised their stuff.
