We continue our series going through the entire catalog of A24's films. On this episode Dakota and Matthew are looking at 2016's Oasis: Supersonic directed Mat Whitecross. The documentary follows the creation and rise of the Britpop band culminating in their Knebworth Festival headlining performance in front of 250,000 people in 1996. Joining the show is Alex Watson.
Our double bill pairings include Better Man (Dakota's pick), Pulp: A Film About Life, Death and Supermarkets (Matthew's pick) and Dig! (Alex’s pick). See our complete A24 Double Bill Pairings on Letterboxd.
