Rock music, like it or not, is one of, if not the, most enduring art forms out there. There's always something to be said about the type of people the medium attracts, from the drugged out creeps, to the bizarre and out of this world weirdos, and I mean that in a good way. Seriously, the best bands of all time fall into the category of rock. So, why has there never been a really good movie about a rock band? (No, Spinal Tap doesn't count.) It seems that rock music can tell great stories, and attract a colorful cast of characters, but when it comes to translating all this to the screen, it leads to almost universal failure. Now, we have The Runaways, and, while it's a huge step in the right direction, the rock biopic still has a ways to go.
