Velvet Goldmine: Difference between revisions

* [[Expy]]: Slade is Bowie, Curt Wild is Iggy Pop (with a dash of [[Velvet Underground|Lou Reed]]), Jack Fairy is Brian Eno, and The Venus in Furs are The Spiders From Mars.

** I always saw Jack Fairy as more of a Marc Bolan.

* [[Fake-Out Opening]]: A UFO? In a movie about glam rockers? Really? (Though considering the motif of aliens in ''actual'' glam rock, it's really not that surprising.)

* [[Framing Device]]: Slade's life story is told though Arthur's interviews, in a manner reminiscent of ''[[Citizen Kane]]''.
