Michael Winterbottom's ON THE ROAD about indie band Wolf Alice is out this weekhttps://t.co/ldE0eX7loO pic.twitter.com/OMcW2jKG80
Yet On the Road (2016) isn't really *about* @wolfalicemusic : the film wouldn't be what it is without the band(s), but that's not the point. https://t.co/G4wv8axCxE— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) October 9, 2017
But being on tour / seeing what that's like is Winterbottom's primary concern : this isn't Dont Look Back (1967) or Stop Making Sense (1984)— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) October 9, 2017
Arguably, On the Road (2016) is closer to Roger Graef and James Rogan's Monty Python : The Meaning of Live (2014), but at a whole-gig level.— THE AGENT APSLEY (@THEAGENTAPSLEY) October 9, 2017
