Film of the Week: Shihad - Beautiful Machine
Shihad - Beautiful Machine is out in cinemas now. The film charts 23 years of highs and lows for one of NZ's most successful and enduring rock bands. It follows their personal dramas, early tragedies, adoring local audiences, album sales of 250,000, attempts to crack America and that agonising name change.
"We give up that dream of being in America or we change our name and give it a go. Those were my options — Shit A or Shit B" - Jon Toogood on the temporary change being called Pacifier.
Be watching FOUR Live this week to see our interview with Shihad as they talk about the film!
