Genesis

In 2003, Stuart Murdoch was out forfor aa runrun whenwhen a tunetune came intointo hishis head. “I"I could hear the whole thing. I always have a littlelittle bitbit ofof paperpaper andand pencilpencil withwith meme whenever I go out, so I jotted down the tune and I went back andand wrotewrote the wordswords downdown fast.”fast." He immediately knew itit wasn’twasn't a song forfor BelleBelle && Sebastian. “[It"[It was]was] thethe completeness in which it hit me,”me," Murdoch describes, “I"I thouthought,ght, ‘Nah,'Nah, this isn't forfor thethe group, this is something else.’else.' It's almost likelike [I’d][I'd] been givengiven thisthis littlelittle present and II thought, ‘OK,'OK, I'm going to get this, I'm goinggoing to go afterafter this.this. This isis goinggoing toto bebe something new and fun.’”fun." One tune led to another and before longlong the charactercharacter ofof EveEve emerged and started to talk. James came next, then Cassie, and as allall theirtheir thoughtsthoughts evolved, so did a girlgirl group soundsound,, a storystory and a sense that itit wanted to be a film,film, a musical. Murdoch had toyed with the idea ofof filfilmmakingmmaking before. InIn 2000,2000, he andand thethe guitarist of BelleBelle && Sebastian, Stevie Jackson, discussed developing a moviemovie for thethe band.band. “[I’d]"[I'd] becamebecame entranced with filmfilm the wayway II used toto be entrancedentranced withwith music,music, andand tooktook great comfort in watching favourite filmsfilms over and over.”over."

II couldn’tcouldn't stand that it closed, so that was a surrogacysurrogacy thing. I wanted to keep allall thethe characters withwith me. But I got busy with music again and never tooktook itit forward.”forward." After Belle & Sebastian'sSebastian’s Life Pursuit Tour inin 2006, MurdochMurdoch beganbegan writingwriting thethe screenplay, calling it God HelpHelp The GirlGirl,, after that firstfirst songsong thatthat camecame toto himhim threethree yearsyears earlier on an afternoon run.

So we brought her over to Glasgow to cheer herher up,up, and wewe putput herher onon aa record cover and in a video. And it was whilewhile she was over that II heard her singing.”singing." “A"A couple of yearsyears later, we opened it up to the internet, and wewe hadhad about 400400 singers apply, and then maybe another 30 on top apply withwith theirtheir own videosvideos theythey sent in.”in."

Eventually, Dina Bankole and BrittanyBrittany Stallings won thethe onlineonline competitioncompetition toto come and record with the group. But Murdoch stillstill wasn’twasn't set onon a leadlead vocalist,vocalist, “I"I wanted somebody ttoo come inin and blast it. I just wanted a sensational voice.”voice." AA friendfriend ofof aa

And thatthat was about the extent ofof howhow he described it. And II was like,like, ‘Ok,'0k, suresure---- thethe bandband thatthat I'dI'd been in, Elephant, disbanded.’disbanded.' So the thought ofof puttingputting togethertogether sortsort ofof aa poppop group was like, ‘why'why the hell not?’”not?" Ireton flew from DublinDublin toto Glasgow and made herher wayway toto thethe BelleBelle && SebastianSebastian headquarters, a twotwo-story-story ramshackle building inin a WestWest EndEnd alleyalley populatedpopulated byby anan almost unbelievable number ofof straystray cats. She was excited and nervous, saying toto herself,herself, “Belle"Belle & Sebastian, here I am!'”am!"

He’dHe'd becomebecome aa fanfan ofof Belle Belle && SebastianSebastian afterafter aa friendfriend tooktook him to a show at the Hollywood Bowl. “They"They played withwith the L.A.L.A.

SeeingSeeing Murdoch’sMurdoch's open callcall for singers, Mendel noted “a"a subtle,subtle, vague referencereference that maybe it would have something toto do withwith a moviemovie at some point.

Recording the AAlbumlbum

With the screenplay still a workwork inin progress and the singers assembled, MurdochMurdoch decided to record a fullfull album ofof thethe songs first. He feltfelt the songs were thethe truetrue basisbasis ofof the film. As a musician,musician, he feltfelt alsoalso moremore confidentconfident inin realizingrealizing theirtheir potentialpotential thanthan mounting a whole film and feltfelt he couldcould hopefully use thethe completedcompleted songssongs asas furtherfurther inspiration, too. He was able toto get the support ofof RoughRough Trade RecordsRecords and MatadorMatador who he’dhe'd worked with on the Belle && Sebastian records, and so he was off.off. “It"It was quitequite a slow process,"process,” Murdoch describes, “I"I remember phoningphoning [lead vocalvocalist]ist] Catherine up,up, and she'd be in her officeoffice in Edinburgh, and I'd say, ‘Try'Try and sing this…’this...' And I'dI'd sing a bit down the phone, and she'd sing me itit back. I'd work outout the key that waswas best forfor her,her, while she was sat in front ofof thethe computer withwith the rest ofof thethe officeoffice lookinglooking atat herher kindkind of funny.”funny." Members of BelleBelle && Sebastian, Camera Obscura, Teenage Fan ClubClub and other Glasgow regulars formed the backing band in the studio. Ireton sang lead on halfhalf thethe songs but Murdoch also brought in KimKim Moore fromfrom ZoeZoeyy VanVan GoeyGoey toto portrayportray EveEve inin the spoken word “Howard"Howard Jones Is MyMy Mozart,”Mozart," thethe bb-side-side to the album’salbum's firstfirst single,single, “Come"Come Monday Night.”Night."

Aysa from the SeattleSeattle-based-based group Smoosh also sang onon “Down"Down andand DuskyDusky Blonde”Blonde" and sang lead on “I"I Just Want Your Jeans.”Jeans." InIn thisthis way, Murdoch cast thethe rightright singers to put each song across. The albumalbum was released June 2009 to critical acclaim, The GuardianGuardian callingcalling thethe tunes “uniformly"uniformly fantastic”fantastic" and other criticcriticss expressing joyjoy at Murdoch’sMurdoch's newnew creativecreative outlet.

They kicked off withwith a small show at the Landsdowne Church inin Glasgow, a homeyhomey affaffairair withwith cakes and a short set taken from the main LP and StillsStills..

Coalescence

In late 2008, Mendel remembers a particularlyparticularly challengingchallenging momentmoment inin thethe writingwriting process, one that he wasn’twasn't sure the partnershippartnership wwouldould survive. “Stuart"Stuart finishedfinished a second draft, and then we sat back and gave it a good read. II made an assessmentassessment thatthat itit was notnot yet what it ought to be, and we had a painfulpainful backback-to-the-drawing-board-to-the-drawing-board moment.moment. Stuart justjust hadn’thadn't expected it, like, ‘Really?'Really? After allall this, scrap itit and go backback andand rethinkrethink thethe whole thing?’”thing?" Though challenging at times, the script development process was ultimatelyultimately productive. Mendel explains, “If"If wewe have disagreements, they alwaysalways leadlead toto interesting discussions. He'll conviconvincence me ofof anan idea I didn't thinkthink wewe couldcould do. He's gotgot ideasideas thatthat are outside the box without trying to be outside the box.box. He's gotgot aa naturalnatural originality."originality." “He"He was also industrious. He did go away and rethink thethe thingthing and came backback with a new, more persopersonalnal and specific story. Which at firstfirst made thingsthings aa littlelittle messiermessier but it ultimately made for a much better film.”film." Mendel recalled a pivotalpivotal moment during Murdoch’sMurdoch's next visitvisit toto Los Angeles, “We"We had these different drafts. There were tons ofof scenes,scenes, sometimes they werewere inin and

So one night at The MagicMagic Castle Hotel in Hollywood where Stuart was staying, we got together indexindex cards ofof everyevery scene he’dhe'd ever written, twice as many as were inin the longlong script we had at thethe time.time. And we colcolor-codedor-coded them. A scene to do with Eve’sEve's illness, that was one color.color. AA scene withwith Anton, that was another. The James romance, another.

This accomplished, Murdoch went back toto workwork withwith Belle && Sebastian, writingwriting songs, rehearsing andand recording Write About LoveLove (2010) and embarkingembarking onon aa worldworld tour to support it.

The lowlow-key-key simplicity and sincerity ofof thethe storystory was a hardhard sellsell toto established UK filmfilm institutions, who seemed toto be lookinglooking forfor eithereither edgieredgier projectsprojects oror still more formallformallyy oldold-fashioned-fashioned ones. After several tripstrips to London, itit becamebecame clearclear toto Murdoch and Mendel that they did not share a commoncommon language withwith thethe U.K.U.K. indie establishment.

Finding a realreal songwriter whoswhosee acting could carry a filmfilm would bebe equallyequally hardhard oror harder.harder. SoSo inin Spring,Spring, 2010, more than two years before shooting, they formally began the search. Their key collaborators were casting directordirector KahleenKahleen Crawford,Crawford, a GlasgowGlasgow native and her associate CarolinCarolinee Stewart.

Over two thousand applied, some appearing inin personperson atat Crawford’sCrawford's office in Glasgow, but most sending “self"self tape”tape" videos ofof themselvesthemselves doingdoing scenes and performingperforming songs.
