What's the deal with this film? Why has there been no mention of it? Anyone have any deets they can share?

I think it's the film included in the GT reissue (2012). I may be wrong

Hey you! I don't have the reissue; was there a film included with it? I thought it was just old footage of them in the studio? Was it actually a doc? This film is apparently a documentary about the band's early years.

There is a film included in the boxset, and it is indeed a documentary, not only old footage.
A version of the documentary was shown in Rough Trade with JDB, and in other places in the UK (I think I remember it wasn't always the same version, they have re-edited it I think).
Here's an interview of K. Evans http://www.qthemusic.com/813/guest-c...redom-despair/

It was bloody brilliant too. Gave us something to watch while No Manifesto was unreleased!

Yeah, I did some digging and you're right: it is the film from the anniversary box set except extended to 72 minutes. Thank you love for supplying this clueless chump with some info. x

Cheers! I wasn't too keen on No Manifesto personally, but I'd love to see this doc. Do you know if it will ever be available on DVD?
