Mistaken For Strangers In Cinemas In June (UPDATE: Screening Dates)

film reviews | movies | features | BRWC Mistaken For Strangers In Cinemas In June (UPDATE: Screening Dates)

 

UPDATE:

There is a special screening on June 14th across the UK & Ireland.

Michael Moore has called it ‘one of the best documentaries about a band that I’ve ever seen’. The band is The National and the film Mistaken for Strangers is a rock documentary like no other.



Matt Berninger is the lead singer of acclaimed rock band The National, his younger brother Tom is a loveable slacker, who lives at home and makes low budget movies.

The night before the band embark on their biggest tour, Matt invites Tom to join them as a roadie, but Tom has other ideas and his camera comes along for the ride. As he tries to capture the behind-the-scenes action, he winds up the band by poking the camera where it’s not wanted, learns that they aren’t as rock-and-roll as he want them to be and generally fails in his tour duties.

Tom’s camera captures his journey as he finds himself living in Matt’s shadow and acting out in a way only a little brother can – drinking, complaining, and struggling to balance his ambition with his responsibilities. An amazingly intimate and spirited film, Mistaken For Strangers delves into the joys and struggles of brotherhood.

Following huge critical acclaim in the US, Mistaken for Strangers will be released in the UK in cinemas and on digital platforms 27 June 2014, before being released on DVD 14 July 2014, courtesy of Dogwoof.
