During the event, they posed for photos, with Liam wearing a navy parka and dark blue jeans while hiding behind sunglasses, and Noel dressed casually in a brown jacket, blue shirt, and jeans. The documentary, written by Steven Knight of "Peaky Blinders" fame, has been praised as "emotional" and "incredibly candid." It includes their first joint interviews since Oasis disbanded over two decades ago, surprising even the director Will Lovelace, who noted their openness during the filming process.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.
