WILD FOR KICKS

It's the weekend, I have to work, I'm in a bad mood, I overslept, I still have laundry to do...in other words, no time for anything but a clip job.

But good clips, with some great music. John Barry's title number for the British teensploitation epic Beat Girl is about as awesome as it gets, plus we get the incredibly hot Gillian Hills working her pout. I've never actually seen this movie, but with Hills, a spaz-dancing Oliver Reed and Christopher Lee as a pimp(!), how bad could it be?



Some Bernard Herrmann? Why not? Here's the theme music from Taxi Driver.



And might as well wrap this up with some Kurt Weill, with lyrics by the always-sunny Bertolt Brecht.
