Guardian piece on 24 Hour Party People, the new film about Joy Division and the Manchester music scene from 1979 to 1992. Sean Harris, who plays Ian Curtis: "I feel very obligated to doing this well...there's a lot of pressure...I met his daughter the other day. She's an extra on the film. She's about 20 now. She came up to me and said, 'You're playing my dad.' I just apologised. It was the first thing that came into my head. She just stared at me. I just stared at her. What can I do? I ain't going to get it right. I'll get it as right as I can."
I can't imagine there being a huge audience for this film but you never know, it might pull people in who otherwise couldn't give a rat's ass. Labels: joy division factory records |
