Oasis turned the Venice Film Festival into a mass singalong. Liam and Noel Gallagher appeared together for the premiere of Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger, the documentary following the band’s large-scale tour that marked their return after 15 years apart.

The film received an eight-minute standing ovation. The brothers held hands and raised them before the audience, while Noel appeared to wipe away tears and Liam encouraged the crowd. During the screening, viewers applauded several of the performances shown in the film before singing “Champagne Supernova” together.

The ovation continued long enough for Liam to look at his watch and ask whether they could leave. Steven Knight, the documentary’s creator, persuaded him to stay for a few more minutes.

The scene became even more intense when the Gallagher brothers came down into the audience to sign autographs. Fans surged forward seeking photographs and signatures.
