Culture Bunker: Festivals Special – Live from Glastonbury 2022, Leisure Festival with HighSchool, plus the new Elvis film

This week is a little bit special, as we are joined by Andrew and Siân live from Glastonbury 2022! Keeping it strictly music, we went along to see Baz Luhrmann’s new biopic Elvis, with our special guest Linda Marric. Could we not help falling in love with it or did we get the G.I. blues? And, staying with the festival theme, Jelena and our producer Jade head to Margate Dreamland Leisure Festival, to catch up with its organisers and line-up stars HighSchool. Was the rollercoaster more highs than lows?



“The trailers for Elvis are quite bland and dead. They do the film a great injustice” - Alex Andreou



“I think Austin Butler was born to play Elvis” - Linda Marric



“Elvis is the apex of Baz Lurhmann’s artistic style” - Jelena Sofronijevic



“The film really tries to tell a wider story of US consumerism in music” - Jelena Sofronijevic
