Episode
27 of See Hear Podcast is ready for your aural consumption.
So
Tim, Bernard and Maurice are discussing a film about a band who go on
the road and…well…shit happens. Could be any number of films?
It’s a mock-documentary. Hmmm….still leaves a couple of choices.
Okay, it’s been cited as one of the greatest ever films out of
Canada. Okay, now you just have to know that we’re talking about
Hard Core Logo.
Bruce
McDonald released this gem in 1996 about a punk band that reform to
do a benefit gig, then follow up with five gigs through western
Canada. Different ambitions and egos collide, medications go
missing, goats get sacrificed, and home truths get told. The film is
about friendships, trust, putting on a macho face to cover
insecurity, and investigates whether you should be able to have the
same ambitions and life at 35 year old, as when you were a 17 year
old.
Not
without humour, but it is certainly a darker film than the one it’s
frequently compared to, “This Is Spinal Tap”. The See Hear crew
really enjoyed recording this episode for you. They even make links
to some other films you would not obviously think to compare HCL
with. What were they? Tune in and find out
