In the 1970s, rock music broke out in the world, and the representative Brad Slade became the leader of the admiration of millions. In 1984, he was "assassinated" during a carnival performance and has since disappeared. The young journalist Arthur began an investigation of the idols of the past. With the narration of Bryan’s wife Mandy, the story goes back to the 70s: the rise of Slade, his mutual encouragement and mutual fascination with American rock star Kurt Wilder, and his final fall. Arthur found Kurt, and his relationship with Slade was as beautiful as an allegory. In interviews and investigations, Arthur's boyhood singer dream was ignited again. He imagined himself as another Slade, regaining his love and tenderness with Wilder, while the angelic Slade was singing in the beautiful palace in the clouds

1. A music film about Glam/Glitter Rock, based on the stories of David Bowie and Iggy Pop. There are many intertexts with popular music in the film, and the soundtrack and songs are also selected. It's very interesting, and the lyrics are used to assist the narrative. 2. Hines is good at filming period dramas. The gorgeous and dazzling audio-visual style of this film just fits the coquettish, flying and psychedelic temperament of rock and roll youths in the 60s and 70s. A variety of image collages, hand-held, quick cuts, with rich colors, as well as gorgeous opening and ending design. 3. What moved and sighed me the most was the helplessness and melancholy that the youthful rebellious passion that permeated the whole film was no longer and things were different. The pursuit of gorgeous images and the indulgent life are destined to be short-lived like shooting stars, and we must always be forced to mature and become socialized. Just like Brian who started a new life after "suicide", as Stuart lamented that his life 10 years ago now seems to be someone else's story, as Mandy said, the glorious days of living by dreams are over, as Curt Confession "We intended to change the world, only to change ourselves." (9.0/10)

Curt Wild: The world is changed because you are made of ivory and gold. The curves of your lips rewrite history.
