Who would play Sonic Youth in a Film?
 

Laying on my sofa with nothing better to think about, wondering what actors might play the yoof if a film was made about them. It's really difficult because none of them are young enough for the current Hollywood brat pack, so maybe if the fim concentrated on their 80s era.

Thurston: Kiefer Sutherland
Kim: Elisabeth Shue
Lee: Michael Rooker
Steve: Christian Slater

The Dandy Warhols





















or
Kim: Uma Thurman
Steve: Daniel Radcliffe

The band actually dicusses who would play who in this awesome and hilarious interview

kevin bacon as thurston? he's not that tall tho, hehe.

I always thought that Clive Owen in Sin City looked a bit like Lee, but if it were sunny then he wouldn't.

Jason Alexander as Steve Shelley
Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Kim Gordon
Jerry Seinfeld as Lee Ranaldo
Michael Richards as Thurston Moore

I've figured out who would play Kim Gordon. Totally Jodie Foster... Now for the other 3...

Sam Riley played Mark E. Smith in 24 Hours Party People and Ian Curtis in Control; could play anyone with wide eyes - Lee.
Jim Carrey as Thurston - great stage banter scenes.
Julianne Moore as Kim.
Ringo Starr without the beard as Steve (anyone saw any Ringo's pictures?).
Elijah Wood as Jim O'.
Alan Smithee to direct.

And anonymous to write? :confused:

EDIT: But I agree, Jim Carrey might be able to pull it off...

thurston - john cleese
lee - ernie wise
kim - joanna lumley
steve - ronnie corbett

Thurston - Carrot Top
Kim - Jessica Alba
Lee - Jamie Foxx
Steve - Vin Diesel

Ouh yeah, Carrot Top and Jessica Alba making out as Thurston and Kim... I'd totally pay to see that...

mcauley culkin as t-daddy
that harry potter dude as steve
courtney love as kim (LOL PSYCHE!) maybe winona ryder?
harrison ford as lee

franka potente as kim
i'm liking daniel radcliffe as steve
and i'm lost for lee and thurston (pesci and deniro)
directed by scorcese

Kim could be played by ex-minister of Labour of Slovakia, named Iveta Radicova:



It might not be that obvious from this picture, but the resemblance is unbelievable.

Yes, there's something in her eyes, hair and skin...
Was she kicked out because Sonic Youth ain't too famous in the country, to be replaced by a Celine Dion lookalike?
My bet is there's no connection though...

She was kicked out because she was a member of pro-reformist goverment party, that lost in the past election and then this communist asshole came in to rule in our country:

Sorry to learn that.
He would play a drunken asshole in the film; he'd bark with Sarkozy; then they'd puke and shit themselves.

hehe, good shot. exminister, but her original profession is actress actually. that's true.

franka potente is a good one.
