A life in pop

23 October 2006

A 2 hours, 20 minutes documentary about the history of Pet Shop Boys, featuring interviews with Neil and Chris, Trevor Horn, Jake Shears, Brandon Flowers, Robbie Williams and other friends and collaborators.

From their trailblazing first single, ìWest End girlsî to their current position as Britain's foremost pop duo, A life in pop traces every ground-breaking step in the 20-year career of the Pet Shop Boys. Starting in their respective home towns in the north of England, Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe retrace their remarkable journey in their own words. The film features some previously unseen live performances, rare television appearances (including their first ever from Belgium in 1984), and interviews with famous fans, collaborators and colleagues including Robbie Williams, Brandon Flowers, Tim Rice-Oxley, Jake Shears and Bruce Weber. A life in pop is a fascinating in-depth documentary film chronicling the Pet Shop Boysí enduring success.
