Directed by Derek Jarman | 1978
With Jenny Runacre, Nell Campbell, Toyah Willcox, Hermine Demoriane
"It's almost an understatement to say that Jubilee has a lot going for it. Jarman has conceived the ingenious idea of transporting Queen Elizabeth I through time to witness the future disintegration of her kingdom as marauding girl punks roam a junky and violent urban landscape."
—Time Out London
“As long as the music’s loud enough, we won’t hear the world falling apart.” Queen Elizabeth I (Runacre) gets zapped to late-70s England, a post-punk apocalyptic nightmare in which distaff anarcho-freaks run amok in a decaying landscape of urban ultra-violence. Derek Jarman’s nihilist anti-comedy features a Brian Eno score and appearances from punk pioneers Siouxsie and the Banshees, the Slits, and Adam Ant—plus cinema’s most disturbing use of ketchup.
