U2 in Rattle and Hum (with Joe Millar)
Manage episode 367387059 series 1809286
It's a story we keep running into here on Pop Screen: a band are so big, so acclaimed, that they think "We could make a film, how could that go wrong?" and the universe then demonstrates exactly how that could go wrong. Coming just one year after their worldwide smash The Joshua Tree,
U2 decided to make Rattle & Hum, a documentary about their American tour. It earned them their first negative reviews, and caused people to reflect - for the first time, if you can believe it - that Bono was quite annoying sometimes.
And yet... you might like it all the same. Joining Graham this week, Joe from Dreaming Machine talks about his complex relationship with U2 after a mammoth revisiting of all their albums. They discuss the failures and the less-heralded triumphs of Rattle & Hum, also finding space to wonder about the Manic Street Preachers' album reissues and tell a delightful anecdote about Joe's old alarm clock. You've given us love, now give us money money money over at Patreon, where you'll find all sorts of content not available anywhere else: a bonus monthly episode of this podcast, for one, reviews of Asian films that need UK distribution in Unseen Asia, our latest podcast From the Video Aisle, which kicks off with an episode about the Canadian SF/horror classic Cube, X-Files reviews and our monthly movie and TV round-up Last Night...
