Courtney Love was right, and Alex Cox is a coward: ‘Sid and Nancy’ (1986)

Courtney Love stalked director Alex Cox, insisting correctly that she’d been born to play Nancy Spungen.

She flew to England on her trust fund money to audition. He gave her a minor part in the film as a sop.

PLUS: note the hammer and sickle on Sid’s t-shirt. Of course, it should be a swastika. Cox is a wimp.
