Johnny Suede is a jerk, a star-struck no-talent loser who daydreams he is as gifted as his heroes. He lives a dead-end existence in a scummy flat and spends more time on his look than practicing on his guitar. One day a pair of suede shoes literally crashes into his life, could they help bring the success he dreams of, or will his new girlfriend manage to make him see the reality.

 This is a great movie, I laughed all the way through it, there are so many moments of comic put-downs for tragic Johnny - many of which are self inflicted. Note that the American cinema version cuts a fairly crucial scene right at the end of the movie which gives Johnny's character a sort of undeserved redemption.
