The Runaways

The Runaways is a music-fueled coming-of-age story that follows the journey of two rebellious teenagers, Joan Jett and Cherie Currie, who form the groundbreaking all-girl rock band The Runaways. Under the guidance of their eccentric manager, Kim Fowley, the band quickly gains popularity and becomes a huge success. But as they rise to fame, tensions and disagreements between the band members begin to tear them apart. The film explores themes of ambition, rebellion, and self-discovery as Joan and Cherie navigate their way through the male-dominated music industry of the 1970s. Featuring a talented cast including Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning as Joan Jett and Cherie Currie respectively, The Runaways is an inspiring tale of female empowerment that paved the way for future generations of female musicians.
