Slade in Flame (12A)

Film

Celebrated as 'the Citizen Kane of British Pop Movies' by critic Mark Kermode, this electrifying and fiercely raw masterpiece plunges deep into the passionate ascent and heartrending downfall of the fictional band Flame, brilliantly brought to life by the legendary members of Slade.

Over countless decades, it has earned its place as a revered cult classic—an unflinching, gritty portrayal that captures the raw, unfiltered spirit of music and fame. With a razor-sharp screenplay that cuts to the bone, performances that thunder with emotion, and a pulsating, foot-stomping soundtrack that ignites the soul, Slade in Flame is more than a film—it's an unstoppable force of passion and artistry. Now, reimagined through a meticulous remastering by the BFI from the original 35mm, it stands as a powerful testament to the relentless drive and inevitable heartbreak of artistic pursuit.
