Roger Daltrey

Brian has known Roger for 40 years, with their lives traveling on similar humble-to-superstardom tracks. Brian and Roger meet up at the house in which Roger grew up, in Shepherd's Bush London. Walking around the hood, they end up at Bush Hall, The Who‘s original rehearsal space. There, they discuss how the rock tour as we know it today was essentially invented by The Who, as they pioneered many hallmarks: aggression, machismo, onstage danger, decibel levels high enough to make steel factory workers ask to have the volume lowered, and of course that controversial penchant for smashing the hell out of guitars, amps and just about everything else. On the road, The Who also set the bar very high for drug consumption, groupie acquisition and hotel room destruction — you can bet we'll hear a few anecdotes about that. And airtime is dedicated to The Who's seminal 1969 album Tommy and subsequent tour, and how that became the tipping point, transforming the band from a bunch of in-your-face rabble rousing art rockers into a group of certified A-list record-shiftin', stadium-packin' superstars.

As movies struggle to stay alive and relevant, Matt and his core team of infighting executives battle their own insecurities as they wrangle narcissistic artists and craven corporate overlords in the ever-elusive pursuit of making great films. With their power suits masking their never-ending sense of panic, every party, set visit, casting decision, marketing meeting, and award show presents them with an opportunity for glittering success or career-ending catastrophe.
