Twenty years ago a French filmmaker came to Liverpool, the birthplace of pop music, in search of “the children of the Beatles” to capture how the musicians of the day were facing up to the challenge of following a generation that had succeeded so spectacularly.
What he found was an insular, rebellious and unique city, hardened by a government which tried its best to break it. But at its heart were people who hadn’t lost hope and held a deep-rooted belief in themselves, the city they had inherited and their love of music.
The result was Jérôme de Missolz’s film “You’ll Never Walk Alone”, a portrayal of the people and those times.
