The Kinks Videos

The Kinks will soon have us! The English rock band (aka the dudes behind the song "You Really Got Me") are getting a feature biopic. ScreenDaily reports that British director Julien Temple is collaborating with frontman Ray Davies on a film that will focus on the relationship between Ray and fellow bandmate and brother Dave Davies. The two were the only steady members of the band, and as Temple explains: "At the heart of [the feature] is the extraordinary love-hate relationship between these two brothers: love/hate, sibling rivalry is at the core." Right now Temple and Davies are sussing out the approach before any screenplay is started. Of course, that also means that there is no cast yet, but Temple will require the actors to be able to play The Kinks music: "I think you would want to have the music played by the actors ... that is believable and real while miming is problematic." His words to Hollywood god's ears! On that basis alone, I'm psyched to see this come together. (She writes, while trying not to eagerly expect another perfect beauty like Control.) But there is a reason to anticipate this, besides the subject, since Temple is the man behind flicks like The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle, plus a whole bunch of music videos, like, oh, Van Halen's Jump. But who could possibly pull off the acting and music chops of The Kinks? Sound off below with your casting choices ... Filed under: Drama, Music & Musicals, Scripts Permalink | Email this | Comments

I am a real musician - a drummer and guitarist - who very complicatedly multitracks and overdubs instruments,...most of the whole music world fucking respects my fucking ass ya know,..i'm 43 years old and i remember the Yardbirds, and the Turtles, and the Monkees and KRTH 101 IN LOS ANGELES,...I'M A FUCKING MAN HERE !!

SOMEONE WHO JUST YELLS INTO A MICROPHONE ABOUT HOW MISERABLE THEY ARE OR HOW FUN IT IS TO BE DUMB or how supposedly bad that their neighborhood is,...well,..THEY FUCKING DON'T KNOW SHIT; THEY NEED TO COME TO 251 AND MEET DOUG AND JEFF !! THEN,..THEY WILL KNOW REAL FEAR - THEY NEED TO SEE MY CHILDHOOD,..AND SEE HOW LONG ITS FUCKING TAKEN ME TO GET ANYWHERE IN THIS WORLD ...NOBODY FUCKIN' EVER LISTENED TO ME BEFORE MAN,..but they are listening to me now !! i think that the guy Asher Roth is actually ripping off the name from that 'other' hip hop act outta Ohio, man !! he's raggin' on THEM - NOT EVEN ME - AND THATS WHATS SO FUNNY ...I GOT REAL TALENT AND RAP MUSICIANS GOT NONE !! THATS THE BOTTOM LINE HERE,...me and great people like Phil Keegan who work hard to get to the top of the internet for success,..yeah,...we think that rap thing is a piece of worthless shit !! FUCK THAT !! WE WRITE REAL SONGS,..WITH REAL FEELINGS,..REAL EMOTION,..AND FROM REAL FUCKING LIFE EXPERIENCE OF SUFFERING MAN ,..WE'VE WATCHED PEOPLE DIE OF fucking CANCER N SHIT -...we ain't gonna take this ,..and we've been called Greenhouse Effect since FUCKING 1985 !!
