Book Description
Performance is the cultiest and many say the greatest, of British films. Without doubt, it is the emblematic film of the 1960s--a peerless study of crime, class, sex, drugs, and rock n' roll. When East End gangster Chas (James Fox) is forced to go on the run he seeks refuge with retired rock star Turner (Mick Jagger) and the two lock horns in a mutual fascination fuelled by hallucinogenic drugs and the erotic allure of Turner's two live-in lovers.
