礼物 Gift (1993)

　　Gift is an intense and revealing look at the L.A. drug subculture and the profound way it shapes the city's music scene. Jane's Addiction are a band for the ages and this movie proves it. But it also shows that the lif...展开e of the musician and indeed the drug addict, is by no means an easy ride. It is also a moving love story, made all the more convincing by the fact that Casey Niccoli was Perry Farrell's real life love interest at the time this film was made. Above all else however, is the truly mindblowing 'duet' of "Don't call me Nigger, Whitey" between Jane's and Body Count. I have never seen such energy in a live performance. (imdb comment)
　　During the early 90's, Jane's Addiction/Porno for Pyros vocalist Perry Farrell and his then-wife Casey Niccoli worked on a cinematic project that would feature his band Jane's Addiction and also explore their own relationship. Although the movie definitely has a "made for video" look to it, the contents within are pretty interesting. There's documentary footage of Jane's Addiction's phenomenal live shows, and of Perry and Casey getting married in a Santeria ceremony. The fictional footage of Casey dying of a heroin overdose is very disturbing, considering that she and Perry, not to mention Eric Avery and Dave Navarro, all had problems with narcotics. Watch out for Harry Perry, a Venice Beach musician who plays a wicked guitar while rollerskating in a turban.
