Described as 'the Citizen Kane of British pop movies' by critic Mark Kermode, Slade in Flame both confounded and delighted audiences when it was released in 1975. Starring the band themselves, this was a music film like no other.
This 50th anniversary remaster, charting the rise and fall of a pop group at the end of the 1960s, this darkly cynical, warts-and-all portrait of a band was not what anybody was expecting.
Acclaimed as a stone-cold bona-fide cult classic over subsequent decades, and boasting a razor-sharp screenplay, superb performances and a power-packed foot-stomping soundtrack, Slade in Flame has been newly remastered by the BFI from the best available 35mm materials for its cinema re-release.
