One of my favorite moments is Moore and JDB in the studio twiddling away on acoustics talking through the best way to tackle a melody..
And The Wire and JDB banging heads on strings in autumnsong and imperial bodybags was a treat. |

Everlasting - all of those. Rare footage and richey interviews very professionally cleaned up, lots of bits of ppf and satt tour footage, lots of fans and lots of insightful, interesting and funny behind the scenes and interview with the band. Esp james cooking, nicky with molly, sean with his guns. Not to give too many spoilers but it's brilliant and funny and I think will appeal to non fans. Also I didn't manage to escape from being filmed. Lol

Thanks for those tid bits Takk, sounds quality. I'll re-watch it on DVD time and time again!! Was wondering, how does it flow, like does it start with maybe footage of the early days and then have a commentary over the top from the film makers and then bits from the band and fans chatting, and it comes up to modern day slowly touching on each period of the bands history? Also, if you can remember, does it have Sleepflower in it? Cos I remember a clip on one trailer you can hear someone shout out SLEEPFLOWER at a gig. Thanks

No it doesn't have a film-maker commentary - the story is told via words and fans and the band...it flows roughly with time, but not in a plodding way....but in a way that intersperses the history with modern stuff. There's some sleepflower and a really cool interview with sean about playing sleepflower.

Yeah Sean talkin bout sleepflower got a ton of laughs from the crowd..
Really thought that they did a good job of interspersing the history of the manics with there apprehension that was evident during the recordin of satt: interesting to see nickys thoughts on if lifeblood failed and how satt may be there last shot as a big time band |

I begged for the day off work and made the trek from Boston to see the movie, and it was definitely worth it. Loved it and can't wait to see it again. Have to say my favorite bits both involved Sean: guns & Sleepflower. Hope everyone gets to see the film soon!

WHat does Sean do, moan and swear about SLeepflower or something? haha.
Isn't there some animation in the film too cos there's a bit in the trailer at the end? Ooo and that reminds me, what happens about Underdogs famous edit in there, cos I'm sure someone said it was during a rough cut of the film? Thanks

I'll let Elizabeth answer that more accurately than I can, but the (small) room was pretty close to full! I'm glad some other FDers got to come too, who didn't make it to the meetup. I didn't know there were more of us in the room! Quote:

It was a small showing, mainly for industry people, but it seems like maybe 10-15 fans were there, and maybe 20-30 others, not sure. It seemed to go down really well with everyone, fans or not.

That's good news. I'd love to see it get distributed properly.

Yeah, me too. It really is such a different Manics documentary, and it will appeal to people who don't like the Manics. The soundtrack is all their recordings of the music too, so it's fresh.

Okay, now I definitely want to see it! This is one of those things that I would love to look back on and see some of my friends from the Manics community.

Was just wondering, for anyone who saw this, how much footage is spent on Richey in the film is what footage is shown exactly and what do the band/fans have to comment on him?
Also, I was curious, how did the film end?
