Performance 64 reviews James Fox, Mick Jagger
Warner Home Video, 2007
Christmas present for my sister, Marilyn, as she longed for Performance to own

I thought I was just giving this a rating, but my sister, who is sixteen years older than me, says that Performance with Mick Jagger is one of the best, most original movies of its times, early seventies. So, perhaps that would perk your interest. I know she is not wrong!

My students really enjoyed this movie. We had read the book as a class and discussed it in detail. They all could not wait to see the movie when we finished. There were characters that they hated and characters that they loved. Over all, this movie was great! Thank you for such quick delivery ...
