FILM REVIEWS AND NEWS

This April, Los Angeles is set to host the world premiere of a project that, on paper at least, sounds like the most explosive addition to the genre in years: Dead City Punx.

This documentary, directed by James Buddy Day, is a snorts-and-all roc-doc that captures the band’s anarchic authenticity perfectly right through to their final three shows.

It is with this personal history in mind that I greeted the news of the upcoming Amazon Prime Video release, Man on the Run. Set to debut on the streaming platform later this month, the film promises an intimate, deep-dive exploration of arguably the most challenging and creatively fertile period of McCartney’s life: the immediate aftermath of the world’s most famous band breaking up.

The official trailer for Michael has finally arrived, and if the first look is anything to go by, director Antoine Fuqua is aiming for nothing less than a definitive epic of the man who redefined the very concept of global stardom.
