Shane Meadows says that making The Stone Roses: Made of Stone was the most pressure he has ever felt as a director.
Meadows returned to the director’s chair earlier this year with the brand new documentary about the Manchester band.
And while Meadows was feeling the pressure with this film he went on to say that it was the ‘dream job.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz the director said:
"That's probably been the most pressure I've ever felt in my life because there are so many things stacked on top of each other.
"You've got a comeback of the band that no one thought would reform and everyone had given up all hope of them reforming. And then they reform and you're sort of giving the job of making a film.
"It was the dream job but also everyone is going to expect something amazing.
"They put my name together with their name, obviously they're a much bigger name than me, but we probably share some fans and everyone was probably thinking it was a dream combination. In a way sometimes you're doomed to fail on those jobs."
The Stone Roses: Made of Stone saw Meadows return to feature film after a stint in television working on three This Is England series. The movie also marked the first documentary film for the director.
The Stone Roses: Made of Stone was a critical hit when it hit the big screen back in June.
