appearing at the regent theatre in stoke on trent with such
credible actors as the fat unfunny one from hi-de-ihi, the
one from allo allo that said RENEEE! a lot, the vicar from
bread who i can't even remember, and some bloke who
apparently was on coronation street who looks vaguely
familiar

alvin stardust also went to my school. but i should have
probably kept quiet about that one. a few years back i was
in town talking about him to a friend of mine sitting on the
square eating a sandwich. then we walk towards hmv and the
fucker walks past me! he gave me a bit of a glare as i was
staring at him.

ouch, 2.2

that's pretty bad.

it has Billy Boyd, of Lord of the Rings fame, in it. I bet
he loves to be reminded of this film.

Summary: Vies for the worst film of all-time

J & the C is a film of quite extraordinary tackiness.
Had the film's marketing department (if there was one) been
imaginative enough, they would have labelled the film as
"Britain's answer to Grease". Lucky for the British they
didn't, because this is a badge of shame for everyone
associated with it. I feel ashamed, and I only watched it.

The plot is painfully contrived, the characterisation
awful, the acting worse than your local am-dram society
performance of Oliver! (with the exception of Thora Hird's
30-second appearance) and the songs... oh, the songs.

I attended the premiere of J & the C in London's
Haymarket. Before the film started I developed a sincere
feeling of dread that the derivative, inane tunes the cinema
was playing over its sound system might be the soundtrack to
the film. It couldn't be, I thought. Surely not.

Bad as the songs were to listen to, however, they were
even worse to watch, thanks to the teeth-grindingly bad
choreography and ghastly expressions on the singers' faces.
Seeing as these songs were the film's selling point, it's a
marvel that the producers managed to find any funding at
all.

If there is any enjoyment to be had from this film, it
could only be in an ironic sense. In any case, it is
unlikely that it will ever be seen again by anyone, and
remains only as a monument to the follies of the British
film industry.

Shining Through, Parting Shots, nothing compared to
this., 27 November 1999
Author: eleven-2 from London, England

The film was released in the UK without previews. The only
sane solution if you've been one of the very few to have the
honour, nay privilege, of seeing this masterpiece in a
cinema.

Would others please join me in demanding an immediate
release on video.

If you haven't seen this - rent a print, hire a screening
room, get some beers and wait for lift off.

The guy taking tickets at the Birmingham cinema where 11-2
(junior) saw J&TC's was incredulous that someone had bought
tickets (that afternoon there were a grand total of 4 in the
cinema).

I'd like to start a Julie and The Cadillacs Appreciation
Society ----- Is there anybody else out there?


you're eleven-2, aren't you, Pete?
