I had the opportunity to attend the premiere of this documentary in London. It was fabulous, far exceeding my expectations! It was not just because it was about Placebo (which is, obviously, one of my top favourite bands ever) but because everything else: the visuals, the songs choices, the sound, the interviews, the discussion topics, the raw, beautiful honesty and the powerful vulnerability. And because of this surprise: my favourite actor, Benedict Cumberbatch is a Placebo fan. How awesome is this?
The documentary and the whole experience made me love Placebo even more, on a deeper level.
Also, a big shout-out to Oscar Sansom - you rock!!!
I would highly recommend this documentary to any Placebo fan, but given the themes it explores, I'd suggest it to anyone. It will make you reflect on some truly important matters.
It was definitely worth coming from Bucharest for this event!
