“The three filters have been developed bespokely; ‘paint’ which directly references the famous Stone Roses self-titled album artwork, ‘night’ filter which creates a night vision effect, and ‘flare’ which recreates the atmosphere of that night,” explains its App Store listing.
And the tutorials? They see a pair of the film’s cast members showing fans how to do the ‘King Monkey’, the ‘Resurrection’ and other baggy moves. Consider our melons twisted (yes, we know that’s the wrong band).
