The world premiere of “Don’t Look Back in Anger,” a documentary charting Liam and Noel Gallagher’s Oasis Live ‘25 reunion tour, electrified the Venice Film Festival Saturday night. The film received an eight-minute standing ovation, with the Gallagher brothers sharing a rare moment of unity.
Oasis mania gripped the Palazzo del Cinema, with fans chanting “C’mon, boys!” and “Fight!” before the screening. One attendee flew a Manchester City flag, the band’s preferred football club. Throughout the documentary, the audience applauded after live performances and sang along to “Champagne Supernova,” with some moved to tears.
Liam and Noel Gallagher, appearing somewhat unsure during the extended ovation, initially seemed inclined to leave before creator Steven Knight persuaded them to remain. Following the screening, a crowd surge occurred as the brothers signed autographs. Earlier, the pair bypassed the traditional red carpet arrival, entering through the cinema doors to the delight of fans who sang “Acquiesece” and “Wonderwall.”
The documentary, directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace, includes both backstage and onstage footage, as well as the first joint interview between Liam and Noel Gallagher in over 20 years. The Oasis reunion tour last year marked the first time the brothers had performed together since 2009, with tickets selling out immediately and generating significant revenue. The film will premiere in theaters Sept. 11 and will later be available on Disney+.
