The other day we posted the teaser poster of writer/director Floria Sigismondi's The Runaways.  Since many people love to take movie images and posters and make them screensavers or desktop backdrops, I've taken the super high resolution version of the poster and placed it after the jump.

And if you missed my review of the film, click here.  And here's eight super high res images from the film.  Later tonight I'm posting my Sundance interview with Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning, so check back for that.

The Runaways Teaser Movie Poster

-

The Runaways follows two friends, Joan Jett (Kristen Stewart) and Cherie Currie (Dakota Fanning), as they rise from rebellious Southern California kids to rock stars of the now legendary group that paved the way for future generations of girl bands. They fall under the Svengali-like influence of rock impresario Kim Fowley (Michael Shannon), who turns the group into an outrageous success and a family of misfits. With its tough-chick image and raw talent, the band quickly earns a name for itself-and so do its two leads: Joan is the band's pure rock' n' roll heart, while Cherie, with her Bowie-Bardot looks, is the sex kitten.

Apparition will open THE RUNAWAYS in over 1400 theaters on March 19. The music-fueled story of the ground-breaking, all girl, teenage rock band of the 1970s stars Kristen Stewart, Dakota Fanning, Danielle Riley Keough, Scout Taylor-Compton (TV's "Arrested Development"), and Michael Shannon. The film marks the first theatrical collaboration between Apparition and River Road Entertainment.  Executive Produced by Joan Jett and Produced by River Road and Linson Entertainment, THE RUNAWAYS will have its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival Sunday, January 24.
