Stoned Love

While many were eagerly anticipating the return of the much loved This is England series following on from the success of This is England, This is England '86 and This is England '88, Shane Meadows went in a different direction, he created the documentary Made of Stone about one of his favourite bands, The Stone Roses.



The success of the 'This is England' franchise has allowed Meadows the opportunity to do what many directors would love to do, carry out a personal project about a band whose impact on british music since the 80's can't be underestimated.



The cinema release saw the premiere simultaneously shown across 200 cinemas throughout the UK and Ireland, with many selling out. The film centres around the reformation of the band and hero worship from the adoring fans.



Following the release social media sites were awash with talk of the The Stone Roses and with the band about to embark on sold out shows in London and Glasgow and an appearence at this years Isle of White festival the film is sure to do well.
