Description

Beginning during the dawn of Factory Records--as Tony Wilson throws himself off a cliff for Granada TV--24 Hour Party People attempts to capture the essence of the ill-fated label which spawned Joy Division/New Order, The Happy Mondays and the venue that started modern Club Culture, the Hacienda in Manchester. Director Michael Winterbottom takes a very different approach to most music biographies, by making the film self-aware that it is a film and ironically looking at its own role within the history of the "Mad-chester" scene. Director: Michael Winterbottom Writer: Frank Cottrell Boyce Starring: Steve Coogan, John Thomson, Lennie James, Shirley Henderson, Paddy Considine, Ron Cook
