Jubilee (1977)dir. Derek Jarman
This is a great scene from a very interesting cult movie. It may not be 100% successful, but a fascinating film with an original voice and point of view.
Jubilee was Jarman's second feature film and was received with mixed reaction. Even members of the punk community felt they were betrayed by this film.
But everyone agrees this is a great moment. It features Orlando as Borgia Ginz who delivers a rant that sounds like something Rupert Murdoch would jerk off to. Punk icon Jordan plays Amyl Nitrate, the lip sinking songstress. The song is actually sung by Suzi Pinns. Jordan played a key role in England's punk movement and was one of the performers at the famous SEX (boutique). According to Wikipedia she is now a veterinary nurse and breeds Burmese cats. You can't punk forever, I guess.
