Sid & Nancy Restored For New Criterion Release

Alex Cox’s cult classic 1986 film Sid & Nancy is a biopic that chronicles the lives and deaths of Sex Pistols bassist Sid Vicious (played by Gary Oldman) and his girlfriend Nancy Spungen (played by Chloe Webb). The film has been restored for a new Criterion Collection release, which is out August 22. The new 4K digital restoration features an uncompressed stereo soundtrack on the Blu-ray edition. It comes with a 1987 documentary on the film, England’s Glory, as well an infamous televised 1976 interview with the Sex Pistols and a rare telephone interview with Sid Vicious. Find the Criterion cover and trailer below. An accompanying booklet features an essay from Jon Savage (author of England’s Dreaming).
