24 Hour Party People 2002

6.92

Um retrato crítico sobre o cenário musical da década de 1980, visto através do olhar de Tony Wilson - um apresentador de TV recém-formado em Cambridge, que inspirado pelo primeiro show dos Sex Pistols em Manchester, funda a hoje mundialmente famosa, Factory Records e a Danceteria Haçienda. As bandas contratadas por ele incluíram Joy Division e The Happy Mondays, enquanto a Haçienda transformou Manchester. Tudo construído sob a filosofia comercial anárquica de Wilson - nada de contrato, só paixão, música e hedonismo - se a banda não gostar, está livre para partir. Ninguém vai embora , mas com dívidas e as ressacas pertubando os cérebros, tudo acaba ficando descontrolado. O comediante Steve Coogan interpreta Wilson em sua luta para manter-se de pé em um mundo de gênios viciados e angustiados. A trilha sonora inclui sucessos dos grupos The Happy Mondays, New Order e Joy Division.
