Oasis: Don't Look Back in Anger received an eight-minute standing ovation at its Venice Film Festival premiere on Sept. 5, where Noel and Liam Gallagher appeared together.
The joint appearance added a major public moment to a documentary built around the brothers' reunion. Noel and Liam have spent years associated with Oasis' breakup, separate careers and highly public disagreements. The film now follows them through the band's Live '25 reunion tour.

Directed by Dylan Southern and Will Lovelace and written by Steven Knight, the documentary combines concert footage with rehearsal and backstage material. It also includes interviews about the Gallagher brothers' relationship and the history of Oasis, including the events that led to the band's 2009 breakup.
The documentary is scheduled to open in U.S. theaters, including select IMAX locations, on Sept. 11. Limited IMAX early-access screenings are scheduled for Sept. 9 in the United States and Canada. Local showtimes and availability may vary by theater.
After the theatrical run, the film is expected to stream on Disney+ internationally and on Disney+ and Hulu in the United States. A specific streaming date has not been announced, so viewers should not assume that the movie will be available online at the same time as its theatrical release.
The Venice premiere updates MusicTimes' earlier report about the documentary's festival booking. That earlier story announced that the project was heading to Venice; this follow-up reports the completed premiere, the audience reaction and the confirmed U.S. theatrical schedule.
The eight-minute ovation is an early audience response rather than a formal review score. Further reviews and distribution information may emerge as the film begins its theatrical rollout.
