"I guess I am an Anglophile. It's probably in the same way that it's a little bit exotic - you don't have as much context. I think context is probably the reason you are inclined to dislike something. Chris Keating definitely introduced that movie to me and I love that the songs are so well integrated into the story - they are as important as the story to setting the tone. Probably more so than Bugsy Malone I'd say. It's a mood film. It's a classic horror story but the way the songs are integrated is really seamless. I've definitely told people before that The Wicker Man is one of my favourite musicals and they've said, ""Woah wait a minute - that's not a musical"" - there's this idea that it's above a musical. That's the kind of tone I love - it has a dark ending - the stuffed-shirted, conservative pious guy who's just there to save a lost girl gets burned at the stake at the conclusion."

"A classic musical exploitation film, only with a good script, a good director and The Beatles at the height of their first flush of fame. It's got a slightly bullshitty plot, but it rolls along at a fantastic lick and obviously you get a lot of great musical performances. But it's those scenes where they're chased through Marylebone station that are the most amazing. The phenomenon of public youth hysteria is really interesting. The book documents three historical moments of it. The first was August 1926, when Rudolph Valentino died and tens of thousands of kids came on the streets, there's a brief snippet of it in the film, we actually found some footage. Then in 1939, when The Wizard Of Oz opened in Manhattan - Mickey Rooney and Judy Garland arrived in grand central and were mobbed by kids. And then obviously Sinatra at the Paramount which is the climax of the movie."

It won’t pierce everyone’s soul because Donald Gambino wasn’t birthed to be everyone’s cultural hero. With the musical strides exhibited on this as whole, he just well may birth a new wave of artists who simply want to pick up an instrument and jam.
Critic- Trent Clark
Original Score: 4 out of 5
