There was a two page spread in this weeks Sunday Times about the new dvd: Joe Strummer:The Future Is Unwritten. His photograph immediately reminded me of John Cusack in the film Grosse Pointe Blank (in my top ten favourite films of all time). Of course, it was Joe Strummer who wrote the soundtrack of the film, and had a hand in the selection of the unbeatable songs used in the movie.
In Sunday's article, John Cusack says "There was nobody like Joe Strummer....... he was a guiding light". So putting the two pictures of John and Joe together, there was no mistaking who John modelled himself on. Even down to the shades he wears in the film.
