I’ve always preferred "Blur" over "Oasis," but I honestly had forgotten why they broke up initially. This documentary, presented in a candid style, attempts to explain things as it follows the band’s reunion—bringing together the four members to record their first new album in many years and perform at smaller venues before playing a few shows for around eighty thousand people at Wembley Stadium in London. The film largely takes place at Damon Albarn's house in southwestern England, and when Graham Coxon (does anyone else see a resemblance to Dudley Moore?), Alex James—a well-known cheesemaker—and Dave Rowntree arrive, it becomes apparent that there’s a significant amount of forgiveness and letting go happening. There’s an openness from all four members regarding the band's split; they couldn't bear being around each other—which isn't entirely unexpected after years of constant togetherness—but it’s evident that their relationships still have something captivating, almost irresistible, about them, which will either ensure the success or failure of this ambitious undertaking even now. I would have appreciated hearing more of their music, just to jog my memory and remind myself there was more to them than songs like "Boys and Girls" and "Parklife," and I could have done with less of what seems to be a contradiction as they reside in safe conservative areas while publicly supporting urban socialist ideas—but ultimately, they are simply four men who were once quite attractive and understood how to craft lyrics and music into a format that playfully and vividly entertained audiences on stage and television during a period when British music was clearly lacking something fresh, vibrant, and impactful. I found the documentary’s approach appealing, and I appreciated seeing it as a snapshot of these four men's lives, which are now quite different from one another. What comes next remains to be seen.
