For the first time in his long career Paul Weller has embarked on his first ever full film score. The film’s star (and writer and co-producer), the Bafta-nominated actor Johnny Harris and a long-time fan of Paul, approached Paul a few years ago through a friend of Paul’s on the off-chance Paul would be interested. However, at that point all that existed was the script – no cast and no budget – but Paul was keen almost immediately and a great partnership (and friendship) was forged.Johnny Harris says;“Paul would constantly send through any new ideas, demos, or recordings, and what was unique and beautiful about this approach was that Paul’s new compositions were now inspiring and influencing the story as I was re-writing it. I’d also send Paul through new drafts of the script, or any new ideas as they were forming along the way, and a beautifully collaborative process evolved”.
