We are delighted to welcome members of Madness to Finsbury Park Picturehouse for a Q&A, hosted by Vic Pratt, following this special preview of the new 4K restroration of Take It Or Leave It.
Take It Or Leave It, originally released in 1981, is the highly entertaining and brilliantly nostalgic story of how Madness, one of the most successful and enduring British bands of all time, originally got together.
Filmed after Madness had enjoyed a bunch of Top 10 singles, endearing themselves to the British public with the humour of their iconic music videos, the film travels back in time to how a bunch of seven mates living in Camden Town in the late 70s formed the band.
It details the jobs they left behind, the line-up changes, the rows, the laughs, and how their distinctive ska-pop ‘Nutty Sound’ evolved.
