Stardust: Johnny Flynn would rather appear in unauthorised Bowie film than ‘bland and safe’ music biopics

Johnny Flynn has defended controversial David Bowie biopic Stardust in comparison to other “bland and safe” music films. The film, set during Bowie’s younger years, was released in the UK on Friday (15 January). It has been near universally panned by critics and fans for going ahead without Bowie’s music or, as his son Duncan Jones put it in 2019, “the family’s blessing”. Stardust has naturally been compared to authorised recent biopics such as...

Netflix’s glossy dramas get all the attention, but there’s much to be said for low-budget TV and film

Netflix made a huge splash with The Queen’s Gambit,...

In the pop era, the long love affair between poetry and music has bloomed into inspired tributes – the Waterboys on Yeats, say, or Jah Wobble on Blake – while living poets declaiming to music has proved more erratic.

Here, Cerys Matthews and studio polymath Joe Acheson , AKA Hidden Orchestra, pull off the trick in style, with 10 diverse UK poets...

Zayn: Nobody Is Listening review – music to make babies to

Pop music is not an easy place to be a reluctant, brooding antihero. In a world where everyone is doing jazz hands, strutting their stuff and projecting to the back of the hall, Zayn Malik has long been more wallflower material – less eager to please, more introverted and more sceptical than the job description called for. Nearly six years since he bowed out from One Direction, precipitating their indefinite hiatus, the mononymous Zayn remains...
