May 18th was 25 years from the death of Ian Curtis, leader of Joy Division. The film "24hr P.P." is about Manchester new-wave scene, where Joy Division has central place,+ producer/menager Tony Wilson. After Joy Division, the band became "New Order", and then we can see somewhat ugly birth of rave-scene, band "Happy Mondays", disco`n`ecstacy, disturbing...not really a "pleasure" film, but interesting and fascinating.
Interestingly, Ian`s widow Deborah stoods behind new movie-project, "Control" about the life of Ian Curtis... Anyway, the title of his song "Love Will Tear Us Apart" is on his memorial stone...
Strange, but solid "music" film.
