Episode 724: 24 Hour Party People (2002)

We continue another Patreon month with a pick from Andrew Henrickson: 24 Hour Party People. Join Mike White, Father Malone, and Axel Kohagen as they dive into Michael Winterbottom's electric chronicle of the Manchester music scene, told through the eyes of the ever-charismatic Tony Wilson, played by Steve Coogan. From Factory Records to the legendary Hacienda, the film brims with unforgettable moments and a who's who of '80s post-punk history, including standout performances by Lenny James, Paddy Considine, and more.

We were supposed to speak with screenwriter Frank Cottrell Boyce again for the episode but it didn't happen this time.
