Lawrence of Belgravia & Take Three Girls: The Dolly Mixture StoryN/C 15+

Birmingham-born ‘almost’ pop star, Lawrence, leader of the revered Felt, and subsequently Denim and Go-Kart Mozart, always seemed like someone who had invented himself. Extremely image conscious and touched by genius, he created precious, careful music that has become more influential through time. Paul Kelly’s intimate portrait finds Lawrence slightly frayed but optimistic that his desired world of limousines and supermodels is still within grasp.

The screening will be preceded by Kelly’s earlier documentary on the fabulous, pioneering Dolly Mixture (40m). It tells the story of the 1970s/80s female pop group whose music can be seen as the missing link between 1960s girl group pop, Orange Juice and the 1990s riot grrrl scene.

The screening will be introduced by director Paul Kelly. After the films, Stuart Murdoch of belle & Sebastian will host a Q&A with Lawrence and Paul Kelly.
