Sigismondi explains the concept thusly: “It’s young girls getting swept up into a world they couldn’t handle… Feeding on those confusing feelings that develop from moving from girl to woman, I could reach deep into myself to find those things.” There’s even some girl-on-girl action; Dakota Fanning, who plays Cherie Currie, makes out with Kristen Stewart, who plays Joan Jett, at a roller rink.
“In ‘Edgeplay,’ Cherie mentions that Joan is really good in bed,” Sigismondi said. “I thought, ‘I have to pry into this a bit. It will cause an explosion in the film. Why not go there?’ “
