This starts with the death of Nancy Spungen (Chloe Webb) leaving Sid Vicious (Gary Oldman) catatonic as the police question him. The couple had met more than a year ago. Sid and Sex Pistols bandmate Johnny Rotten (Andrew Schofield) are on the streets doing minor vandalism. They find Nancy with another friend. She becomes a groupie. After a little time, they become a couple addicted to heroine. The band implodes during the disastrous US tour. Sid tries to go solo with Nancy managing but their desperate addiction leads to the eventual self-destruction.
These are two amazing performances. Gary Oldman and Chloe Webb go into the gutter of the soul of these characters. It's raw and powerful. This is a Romeo and Juliet on heroine. I actually find Webb the wilder performance but the combination is undeniable.
