The world of the Rock star, the chameleons of the stage who give so much of themselves to the world and who don’t notice until it is perhaps too late just how much has been taken, how much has been eroded away, sometimes find they have become pale imitations of themselves and the need to retreat becomes not only a tantalising thought but one of necessity.

There are films which have the audience hanging on the edge of their seats and usually they are for their sheer scope and vision they offer the cinematic screen. They do not normally have the truth of America’s dirty laundry being aired in public or the realisation that somewhere in the U.K. or any other country the underworld is not just in bed with law and order but the relationship is consensual and without the use of protection.
