24 Hour Party People / UK / France / Netherlands / 2002

Steve Coogan navigates through Tony Wilson’s life with precision, and yet also great liberty and abandon. Present at the Sex Pistols’ first live concert in Manchester, he narrates the experience, as he is spliced within vintage footage of the actual performance. Midway through the film, Coogan sits next to the man he portrays, and lists the other cameos in the film, most of which are portrayed by actors in the film. In all, this retrospection couldn’t be more immersive for the viewer, and it persists to be the most innovatively directed film I’ve seen in recent years.
