The Libertines

A wonderful British band troubled by drugs and alcohol usage.

Favoured by Mick Jones of The Clash.

Two members are homogay*

One amazing drummer.

And a bassist who hardly ever smiles.









*this may be a lie, don't sue me.

"Love's welcome, no matter what angle it comes from."

"Even from behind"

Artistic liberties

A favored term of filmmakers who create films based on or around a historical event/person/era that holds little historical accuracy, usually for the sake of making the film seem more interesting than the reality it's based on, and by extension, possibly drawing in larger crowds and making more money at the box office.

Such extensive artistic liberties were taken with Sofia Coppola's "Marie Antoinette" that it was booed at Cannes.

When George Hickenlooper was questioned as to why his '06 film, "Factory Girl", had been panned so severely by Warhol scholars, he spoke of his artistic liberties taken with the film.
