I just finished watching 24 hour party people which was on the telly. It was interesting, but not great; I don't think I need to see it again. Maybe it's because I'm not that crazy about the musical scene it was about. I like Joy Division and New Order of course, but most of the late 80s Manchester pop and rave culture seemed to pass me by, I was probably too busy saving the world ;). I recall one or two good songs with Happy Mondays, but I never was into them. (In my opinion the best of the late 80s british bands is Stone roses.) I knew some people who were and and it didn't end well. It was not only the music they got inspired by, if we say so.
But, as said, the film was interesting, and I sewed most of the body part of a 16th century jacket to go with my kirtle. I love hand sewing while watching the telly.

I'm sorry you didn't like it. I just think it's a fun movie about the absurdity that is the music industry in general.

I liked Happy Mondays, btw, and I turned out all right. Well, comparably anyway.

I didn't say I didn't like it. It was funny, but I guess I had hoped for more. And it felt a little too long in the end.

Yeah, the ending's pretty weak.

Maybe I'm just a Steve Coogan fan. I've yet to see him in something and not think he's hilarious.
