Johnny Suede is a young man with an attitude and an immense pompadour, who wants to be a rock n' roll star like his idol Ricky Nelson. He has all the stylistic accoutermentsexcept a pair of black suede shoes. One night, after leaving a nightclub a pair of black suede shoes falls at his feet. Soon afterwards, Johnny meets Darlette. In spite of Darlette's abusive boyfriend with a gun, Johnny begins to see Darlette everyday. When Johnny is forced to pawn his guitar for rent money, Darlette mysteriously leaves him. Depressed about Darlette's desertion, he wanders aimlessly, and he meets Yvonne, a woman much wiser than Johnny who teaches him that there are things in life much more important than a pair of black suede shoes.

Who’s that over there? It’s Brad Pitt with one hand in his shorts and an unforgettable haircut, sidling over to the refrigerator for carrots. DiCillo puts layers upon layer of weird atmosphere with each shot and Johnny Suede will put a smile on your face with just one outlandish, unreal glance. And the music is excellent.
