I just saw the 1970 movie "Performance", in which Mick Jagger stars as an aging rock star, back in the day when a 30-year old was considered to be an aging rock star. And forgive me if I'm years behind the ball on this one, but with his pouty look, long black hair, and dark eye makeup, Brian Molko of Placebo looks EXACTLY like Mick does in this movie. The ressemblance is so close that it's scary. As for the movie itself, "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" trod similar ground and was far more cleverly written, and the accents were just as difficult to understand.
