Headline’s a bit misleading, this is a documentary not a biopic. Very stoked to see it though.
What a great choice of director for this doc. Julien Temple is deeply wired into all things UK music.
Can’t wait for this. Shane is one of my all time favorites.
Oof. As much as I look forward to this it reminds me of the idea “Every film about war ends up being pro-war”, is there a music doc about a band or musician that had such problems that doesn’t end up glorifying alcoholism and drugs even while showing their ravages alongside the glory.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Reaction: Ooh, a Shane McGowan biopic, that sounds interest… oh **** no it’s produced by that *******, that’s a hard pass.
