Alan McGee is the man who, after a somewhat tough upbringing in Glasgow, found his calling and his milieu in London, where he founded Creation Records, the now legendary record label that released The Jesus and Mary Chain, Primal Scream, My Bloody Valentine, and, not least, Oasis. Here, we follow McGee through days and nights filled with music, joy, madness, a generous intake of alcohol and drugs, incredible successes, and spectacular crashes. The pace is frenetic, the stories numerous, and the heart big in this film about the man behind the bands that set so many lives to music.
This exuberant biopic, based on McGee's best-selling autobiography, stars a script by Irvine Welsh, the author who wrote the 90s' foremost generational novelTrainspotting. Ewan Bremner, who played Spud in the film adaptation, stars in the lead role. The film is directed by Nick Moran, who made his breakthrough with Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. The soundtrack is like the best mixtape you can imagine, featuring Oasis, Primal Scream, My Bloody Valentine, The Boo Radleys, The Jesus and Mary Chain, Sex Pistols, David Bowie, D-Ream, Dido, and more.
