24th anniversary screening of Michael Winterbottom's comedy '24 Hour Party People', with Steve Coogan, about Factory Records and The Haçienda.
QUAD is screening 24 Hour Party People on Friday 20 November and Saturday 21 November, a 24th anniversary showing of Michael Winterbottom's comedy. It's a look back at Factory Records and The Haçienda, told through the eyes of Granada TV presenter Tony Wilson, played by Steve Coogan.
The story starts with a Sex Pistols gig that inspires Wilson to set up Factory Records and sign local acts like Joy Division, who later became New Order, and the Happy Mondays. From there it's a blackly comic tale of music, sex, drugs and larger-than-life characters, and it also charts the birth of The Haçienda, one of the most famous dance clubs in the world. The film runs 117 minutes.
