Blur’s ‘To The End’ Documentary Shows an Iconic Group at Their Most Tender

Blur's 'To The End' documentary: Graham Coxon reflects on the film.

Directed by Toby L (whose previous collaborators include Olivia Rodrigo and Liam Gallagher), To The End is a portrayal of loss and the maturing friendship between Albarn, Coxon, Alex James (bass) and Dave Rowntree (drums). To reconnect, Albarn and James go for a dip in the freezing English coast, and during individual interviews the group acknowledges their deep love of one another even if that doesn’t always appear evident. Albarn drew attention to that during Blur’s set in front of a lackluster Coachella crowd back in April: “You’ll never see us again so you may as well f—–g sing it.” Coxon plays it down though admits the California festival can be a “weird, hot show” and that “it felt a bit like ‘who are these old guys?’ Last year the audiences were fantastic all the way through.
