Do you look back on the optimism of the 1997-2001 era as a lost golden age, or do you see it as a period of naïvety, delusion and folly? There's a lot of nostalgia for the nineties, especially from people too young to remember it who see the decade as a simpler, pre-internet time. Modern nostalgia often draws on corporate American-90s mall culture, but what about British culture?With I've Been Trying To Tell You – made to accompany the Saint Etienne album of the same name – director Alasdair McLellan evokes the era through the fog of memory. The resulting film, shot in locations from Grangemouth to Portmeirion to Southampton, is both beautiful and enveloping.ExtrasHer Winter Coat (2021): New Saint Etienne music video directed by Alasdair McLellanHello Holly (2021): New Saint Etienne music video directed by Alasdair McLellanEscalade (2021): New Saint Etienne music video directed by Alasdair McLellanBob Stanley and Alasdair McLellan in conversation (2021)Marc Jacobs Daisy: TV advertisement starring Kaia Gerber, Adut Akech and Meghan Roche, directed by Alasdair McLellanTrailersOther extras TBC**FIRST PRESSING ONLY** illustrated booklet with new writing on the film by Jason Wood and un-released images from Alasdair McLellan
