Photo reblogged from The Planet Of Sound! with 32 notes

theplanetofsound: Something I’ve learned Today: Quadrophenia was made in 1979, at the height of the British punk movement, and the filmmakers contemplated casting a punk musician as the lead, to lend Jimmy an authentic air of rebellion. They considered Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols for the role, but the film’s insurance company refused to allow him to be cast. Rotten apparently would have turned down the role anyway, saying he didn’t want to “live out any of Pete Townshend’s fantasies.” And other interesting facts about “Quadrophenia”: from Criterion
