Doc ‘N’ Roll feat. Dr Neil Fox (29/06/2024)
Following an update from founder Colm Forde on forthcoming Doc’n Roll Film Festival screenings, Doc’n Roll’s second June show features a conversation with academic, author and documentary film expert Dr Neil Fox. He talks in depth about his forthcoming Bloomsbury book Music Films: Documentaries, Concert Films and Other Cinematic Representations of Popular Music, whose wise and reflective foreword has been provided by acclaimed Welsh musician, composer and producer Gruff Rhys. From The Beatles in Hard Day’s Night to a moving portrait of the late-blooming career of Leo “Bud” Welch, Music Films captures the captivating “cinematic mess” of a treasure trove of sound and vision.
