A new feature documentary about Liam Gallagher’s solo career has been announced.
Altitude Film Sales has boarded Liam Gallagher: As It Was for international sales, and will introduce the film to buyers in Cannes.
Altitude Film Distribution and Lorton Entertainment will co-distribute in the UK and Ireland. Lorton were also involved in distributing 2016’s Oasis: Supersonic.
Liam Gallagher: As It Was is directed by Charlie Lightening, whose previous films include the Sandy Hook benefit concert film 12/12/12 and films for Robbie Williams, Bjork, and Kasabian.
It is produced by Steven Lappin (Springsteen and I, George Michael: Freedom) and financed and executive produced by Lorton Entertainment.
The film sees the singer tell his story in his own words - how he went from fronting Oasis to “living on the edge, ostracised lost in the musical wilderness of boredom, booze and bitter legal battles”.
It features performances from Reading, The Ritz, One Love Manchester and Glastonbury and will climax with his sell-out gig in Finsbury Park.
Gallagher said: “As It Was is a documentary about my musical comeback. It covers the writing and recording of my first solo album, right through to playing it live for the very first time in my hometown of Manchester and around the world. I hope you enjoy the film… As You Were.”
Lappin added: “This will be Liam as you’ve never seen him before. For the past 18 months he has provided Charlie Lightning with unparalleled access to every area of his life.”

Eta guigsysEstring , human Encyclopedia No significance but just a name the then couple liked- In that couple interview they once gave in that Canadian talk show, Nicole said that she liked Kiss, to Liam's disgust.  So I thought, maybe it was Mr. Simmons that was in the back of her mind when she named her son, without admitting that to Liam? BTW, totally unrelated, as a child I thought Gene Simmons was the son of actress Jean Simmons. Made total sense to me, because of the names.  |

Forgot about that interview I've linked it to the bit where Nic talks about Kiss but a bit before that Liam talks about him having bought Gene a drum kit- |
