Twisting My Melon

About This Movie

So, there's this film called 'Twisting My Melon'—it’s a biopic about Shaun Ryder, the frontman of Happy Mondays. It’s supposed to dive into his life, from being a kid obsessed with guitar to becoming a key figure in the Madchester scene. The vibe is expected to be gritty and raw, maybe even a bit chaotic, reflecting the party atmosphere of that era. You’ve got Jack O'Connell, Jason Isaacs, and Maxine Peake lined up, which suggests some solid performances. The film was announced back in 2019, and I’m still curious about its progress. It’s got a unique edge, blending music and personal struggle, but who knows when it’ll actually surface?

This film has been on the radar for some time, with its initial announcement stirring interest among collectors. Physical formats and distribution details are still vague, so it’s unclear how many copies will be available. Given the cult status of Shaun Ryder and the Happy Mondays, there might be a niche but passionate collector market once it’s released, especially for any limited editions or special features that might come out.
