Oasis' concert film 'could be up for major awards'
Oasis' concert film could be in line for "major awards", according to a source.
Oasis' upcoming concert film could be in line for "major awards".
Noel and Liam Gallagher reunited earlier this year for the long-awaited Oasis tour, and their upcoming concert film "has captured music history".
A source told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: "This film has captured music history and the footage is incredible.
"The drama off stage, covering the steps that began their reunion, are as good as any Hollywood blockbuster.
"It really is dynamite. The brothers are opening up in a way we have never seen before."
The studio behind the project is hoping to enter the film for major awards in the coming months.
The insider continued: "It will be very emotional for not only them to look back on, but fans, too. The studio is now reviewing what steps they have to take for the movie to be entered into these major awards."
Oasis split in 2009 following a massive bust-up between Liam and Noel, with the brothers going years without talking before eventually mended the rift and getting the band back together for a world tour.
Richard Ashcroft recently admitted that he relished the experience of supporting Oasis on tour.
He told The Independent newspaper: "The energy of this summer, I’ll probably never experience anything like it again. On stage, it was great.
"The reaction from the crowd was just incredible. For someone like me, as a songwriter or a performer, your camel hump gets drained and you don’t know where you’re gonna find any sustenance.
"And then something happens like this and you think, actually, I’ve got new energy. Even just the art of writing a tune, refocusing on that, it’s inspiring ...
"It really brought home to me, wow, Noel, what a songwriter, undeniable. Liam, wow, what a force, what a power, what a voice, what a dude."
The Verve star was also amazed by Liam's "discipline" on tour.
He said: "It’s a bit like if there’s stuff going on within your family ... The beautiful thing about it is, Liam’s discipline is amazing.
"I don’t think he’s allowing himself to be in any situations where he can go off track or whatnot. Noel seems to be in a really good space. The whole band seems to be."
