The Smiths. Inside the Smiths
Description
Andy Rourk and Mike Joyce were the legendary rhythm section behind The Smiths. For the first time on film, they tell the story of what it was like being in one of the world's most celebrated and groundbreaking bands. They'll describe what it was like working with Morrissey and Johnny Marr. Learn about their unique songwriting process and the relationships they formed in the five years they were together. Rourke talks openly and honestly about the perilous drug addiction which threatened not only his position in one of the world's greatest bands - but also his life. Witness contributions from Peter Hook of Joy Division and New Order; Buzzcocks; Mark E Smith of The Fall; Kaiser Chiefs; Matt Osman of Suede, and many more. Filmed over three years in the UK, Europe, and the USA, this film explores The Smiths from the perspective of those who were there.
