24 Hour Party People / UK / 2002
Upon finishing Chris Ott’s profile of Joy Division’s Unknown Pleasures, I returned to this film – which I still consider among the best I’ve seen so far this decade – to scrutinize its accuracy (or lack thereof) in rendering Ian Curtis’ frenetic stage presence and Martin Hannett’s unorthodox production techniques. And, it does fairly well, although the duration of Joy Division’s relationship with Factory Records – although accelerated – is only the film’s leading bookend, abbreviated (with sparing liberties) to roughly twenty minutes of screen time. This is not a complaint—this film is decidedly poised to relay Factory Records’ (or Tony Wilson’s) spotlight, but it is a fascinating, albeit short visualization of the production of one of the most brooding, atmospheric records I own.
