The definitive band-approved documentary Suede: The Insatiable Ones debuted on Sky Arts in the UK last night. The 113 minute film tells the band's story through archival performance footage, candid interviews with band members (past and present) and other key players that were there along the way (Mike Joyce of The Smiths also appears). Mike Christie, who recently worked on the excellent New Order: Decades, directed the project. Christie goes way back with Suede -- he established a working relationship with the band in 1993 -- and was granted full access to the band's extensive archives.
After last night's premiere Suede announced that Suede: The Insatiable Ones will be released on DVD April 12th. The triple disc DVD will include bonus material not shown on the Sky Arts broadcast including an interview/conversation between Brett Anderson and Peter Saville; drummer Simon Gilbert's personal archive of photos and behind the scenes footage, and more.
