Details: Amazon.caStarring Ben and Casey Affleck, Courtney Love, Martha Plimpton, and Christina Ricci, among others,200 Cigarettes is a romantic comedy set on New Year’s Eve 1981 in New York City’s East Village. Supporting the film is a representative collection of late-’70s and early-’80s new-wave pop-rockers. The Ramones nail down the ferocious end of the spectrum (« I Don’t Care »), but the emphasis is on straight pop with Nick Lowe (« Cruel to Be Kind »), the Cars (« Just What I Needed »), Joe Jackson (« It’s Different for Girls ») and the Go-Go’s (« Our Lips Are Sealed »). Roxy Music deliver the sensuous « More Than This. » Dire Straits’ epic « Romeo and Juliet » is a tad out of place among the slam-bang pop-rock. Modern rockers Girls Against Boys effectively cover Earth, Wind and Fire’s « Boogie Wonderland. » Blondie contribute « In the Flesh » and a special megamix of « Rapture, » plus two newer songs from their comeback effort.–Rob O’Connor
