I'm so glad people are finally giving some love to this classic punk rock movie
! I remember watching it as a teenager and feeling like the protagonist Corinne was speaking directly to me - we were both just trying to navigate our way through life without losing ourselves in the process. The film's message about not "putting out" is so important, especially for young women who are constantly bombarded with messages telling them how to behave. It's amazing that it has influenced so many women in punk rock and beyond
.
I think what really resonates with me is how unglamorized the film is - it shows the harsh realities of life as a young woman in the 80s, but also the power of female friendship and rebellion. It's a reminder that our struggles are not unique to us, but rather a part of a larger conversation about social justice and equality.
