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.
