The Sparks Brothers - Official Trailer (Universal Pictures) HD

Sundance Film Festival: London Screening and Live Satellite Q&A with Edgar Wright, in cinemas July 29.
In selected cinemas July 30.


Directed by Edgar Wright, "How can one rock band be successful, underrated, hugely influential, and criminally overlooked all at the same time? Take a musical odyssey through five weird and wonderful decades with brothers Russell & Ron Mael, celebrating the inspiring legacy of Sparks: your favorite band's favorite band."

I cannot recommend this film enough, it’s fantastic. Russell and Ron are the nicest guys in the world and their relationship is just lovely. And of course, they are musical geniuses!

[grahambradley]

Been a fan since around 74, thanks to my brother's influence. He unfortunately passed away in 2017 and since then I've felt like I need to see them in concert in his memory. I'm finally getting to fulfill this in Hamburg in April. Cannot wait.

Just seen it tonight and it's TOTALLY FANTASTIC. All the tunes you know - the new tunes you don't know and yet will love - 81 to 86 and FFS are my new loves. SEE THIS FILM TODAY DO YOURSELF A FAVOR

[janemcnaughten]

Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. I saw Sparks on Top Of The Pops in the 70's. Never saw Ron smile let alone talk. Fantastic, can't wait. Jane in New Zealand 👏

I’ve loved these guys for 42 years. My 9 year old daughter knows and loves ‘This Town’.

[Dylanpro]

My love for them runs deep. I urge anyone who loves music to watch this, you won't regret it!!

[DarrellS]

I was never into Sparks growing up but I sure respect their creativity, guts, longevity and the fact they are actual musicians! Plus they`re still out there doing their thing! Will be cool to see this movie.

Come on Giorgio, say your thing!
Giorgio: "It was the sound of the future"

[erinhogan]

Oooh I can’t wait! I only discovered Sparks in 2015 after their collaboration with Franz Ferdinand. I instantly fell in love!

[toveral]

Ron Mael scared the bejesus out of me in the 70’s and now I’m totally in lurrrrve 😁

[beardyjosh]

Really excited to see this I love Sparks.

[PhyllisJay]

You don’t need to be a fan of this band to enjoy this film but, I can promise you if you watch this you’ll become one.

Angst in my Pants/Monster of Love...blueprint tracks of my childhood. Nic Cage’s odd hairy chest, Debra Foreman and Sparks.

[dayngaru]

I had never heard of sparks but this looks great

[VicVicDimagiba]

Thought this was a mockumentary, but apparently they are real. Will definitely watch this.

[girpo]

If you don’t like Sparks, we’ll ….ahhh I LOVE SPARKS!

[Cluv]

So basically, Sparks is the most known unknown band in the world?

[terrellovett]

Must watch doc. you don’t know what you don’t know. You will be surprised.

[evelynnicholl]

Ha ha they are so funny but very talented

Was suppose to see the Sparks Brother's film on July 29 at the Glasgow St. Enoch Vue cinema, but upon arrival with my daughter ( who had got me the tickets for my birthday) was told the film had not arrived. EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED. I'll get to see the film. But Vue, you've permanently lost my custom for your TERRIBLE customer service, and delay in issuing a refund. Loved Sparks since 1974. Rock on Ron and Russell. See you next April at the Glasgow Barrowland's.
