Enye yezindawo zamakhonsathi yaqanjwa ngefilimu kaRoger Vadim ethi Barbarella's. Isithombe sithwetshulwe ngokusekelwe kumahlaya ezinganekwane zesayensi, lapho omunye wabalingiswa abagqama kakhulu kwakungudokotela oyisikhohlakali u-Duran Duran. Ukuhlonipha lo mlingiswa onemibala, leli qembu lathola igama lalo.

Izihlalo ezingenamuntu zaqala ukufuna abaculi abasha. Inyanga eyodwa yanikezelwa kwabazohlolwa, futhi ngenxa yalokho, umculi u-Andy Wickett kanye nesigingci u-Alan Curtis bamukelwa eqenjini.
U-Duran Duran ufuna umculi
Isikhathi esithile iqembu lalikhona kulokhu kuqamba futhi laqopha izingoma ezimbalwa. Kodwa ukusebenza esidlangalaleni kugcine kungaphumelelanga, ngenxa yalokho kwaphinde kwavela izinkinga eqenjini.
Indawo yomculi yaphinde yakhululeka. Kulokhu, abasunguli baleli qembu bavele bafaka isikhangiso ephephandabeni.
Ngakho omunye umculi Taylor uvele eqenjini. Ngemva kokuzijwayeza nentsha, uJohn noNick banquma ukuthi isiginci sizomfanela kangcono. USimon Le Bon, owamenywa ngabajwayele, wabelwa ukucula.
Ngenxa yalokhu kusatshalaliswa kwezindima, iqembu libe nendawo ezolile futhi evamile yokusebenza. Ngaleso sikhathi, iqembu leDuran Duran lase lithole abaxhasi abahle abanikeze iqembu umuzwa wokwethembeka nokuzinza.
Yiqiniso, kwakukhona inani elikhulu lezingxabano, ukungezwani nezingxabano, kodwa iqembu lanqoba konke, labhekana nalo, lasinda futhi lagcina ngokuyisisekelo ukubunjwa kwalo.
