Stone Roses documentary in the media!

[Dave]

I guess this is as good a time as any to start a press thread for this... especially as this article has just appeared:

www.nme.com/news/the-stone-roses/66757?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=stoneroses

The NME have deducted that the film will be released in the spring next year... not that that is definitely confirmed by anything in the article.

Some new news. And a title...

The server for the Film4 blog is down at the moment. :-\ Found this, though -- I assume it's pretty much the same information:

Here's the link the Film4 blog (which seems to be working again now):
blog.film4.com/film4-4dvd-and-warp-films-announce-details-of-their-shane-meadows-stone-roses-documentary-feature-the-stone-roses-made-of-stone/

Not much more news in there, other than the title of documentary seems to be:
The Stone Roses: Made of Stone

Release date still mentioned as being late spring/summer.

Thanks, Dave. But for some reason, I'm still getting this message:

"Safari can’t find the server.
Safari can’t open the page “http://blog.film4.com/film4-4dvd-and-warp-films-announce-details-of-their-shane-meadows-stone-roses-documentary-feature-the-stone-roses-made-of-stone/” because Safari can’t find the server “blog.film4.com”."

[Dave]

So the distributor of the film has changed from Revolver Entertainment to Picturehouse Entertainment, and the release date is narrowed down to being in either May or June.... well according to this article on Screen Daily,

Film4 blog entry today confirming release date and premiere info:

blog.film4.com/the-stone-roses-made-of-stone-premiere-announced/

The band are in attendance at the premiere in Manchester!

Just noticed that the photo on the blog is credited to one Dean Rogers! Hopefully his website will be back in action soon so he can show his Stone Roses work!

Now it's on the BBC news site it feels a bit more legit! haha

Producer Mark Herbert tweeted this earlier (There's more to it than the message gives away! ha)

" World exclusive. @madeofstonefilm director leaves both ends of his sausage and some beans in London hotel pic.twitter.com/W7gCkGhJ2w "

[shanemeadows]

That was my Sausage. I don't normally leave the end or even eat bangers anymore but I got caught up in the moment and Mark took advantage of me.

Shane is being interviewed on Kermode and Mayo's FIlm Review on BBC Radio 5Live this Friday afternoon.
Confusingly, neither Kermode or Mayo will be involved... it will be Zoe Ball and James King instead!

There is always a podcast of this show, so don't worry too much if you miss it.

[Bill Edwards]

One day to go! I've been avoiding the hype so will be checking it all out from Friday onwards.

[Dave]

Thought I should change the name of this thread to ".. in the media" rather than just ".. in the press" which seems a bit more print based.

As always, this will be the thread I dig through when I come to list all the articles and videos on the main site, so anything you find, please add it to this thread.

Anyway, here's a little video interview with Shane from BBC Breakfast this morning:
