"24 Hour Party People" is not a mockumentary. It's more of a dramatized documentary. The people and bands and places were real. It even has appearances by some of the ACTUAL musicians from the music scene depicted in the movie. Anyway, surprised you included it on this list and happy to see it promoted. Great movie.

I came here to say same thing. Documents real people & bands (Joy Division, New Order, Happy Mondays) who all came out of the Hacienda Club in early 1980's Manchester England. Filmed in a very unique way. Love this movie. Tony Wilson has a great line about how Rave Culture started there - "the beautification of the beat". Great soundtrack too. Worth watching just to see how Factory Records and it's oddball agreement with its bands lead to New Order financing the club, label and other bands.

Tony Wilson the tv presenter played by actor Steve Coogan in ‘24hr party people’ was definitely not “a buffoon”. He started Factory Records opened and managed the The Hacienda Club, he also had a very long career as a tv presenter who championed alternative and regional culture and was responsible for booking The Sex Pistols for their first tv appearance on a show he hosted. Sometimes referred to as Mr Manchester.

…And the movie is not a “mockumentary” as the music, the bands, the people, and stories are pretty much true. Sure, some of it is “legend”, rather than absolute fact, but it’s certainly not “This is Spinal Tap”. This movie uses comedy as a vehicle to get its story across, but it’s not making fun of rock documentaries or music. For anyone who doesn’t know this story or these artists, I highly recommend going back and listening to Joy Division, New Order, and the Happy Mondays.

Nick Cave wrote the beautiful script for The Proposition and cowrote the soundtrack. It is as close to the mood of Blood Meridian as any Western I have seen. I mention this because Hillcoat has been tapped to direct the theatrical version of that amazing novel which, so far, no one has managed to turn into a completed film. Based on The Proposition, I have hopes that Hillcoat may pull it off. He did a decent job on The Road (another Cormac McCarthy novel). I loved all the movies you mentioned-some of my favorites!

Awesome to see you mention 24hr Party People, just a heads up it's not really a mockumentary it's actually loose based on the real life of Tony Wilson a pioneer television presenter who promoted bands around the Manchester area, the 'Factory Recors' label which managed acts such as Happy Mondays, A Certain Ratio, New Order (the former Joy Division) etc. and eventually (with the help of the along with members of Joy Division/New Order) set up the legendary Hacienda night club which was really the mecca for the dance/rave culture in the UK in the late 80s/early 90s. So yeah just a bit of context that all the story with the music/bands was real it was just an embelshiment of the story/character in certain parts with majority still being reasonably factually correct.

Spanish Prisoner warning for those unfamiliar with Mamet's directorial work: he directs actors as one would for a play. The line readings will be terse and wooden, but if you can roll with that its a very good movie. And the ending is unintentionally hilarious. Just be open minded and forgiving, and you'll have a good time one qay or another.

The Proposition soundtrack from Nick Cave and Warren Ellis is as good as it gets... and with Cave having written the screenplay, it just goes to show what a powerful trio those three make when it comes to Westerns. Hillcoat would go on to direct Triple 9 (Casey Affleck, Woody Harrelson), as well as the Prohibition-era movie Lawless (Tom Hardy, 2012) and then he even did some work with the best video game franchise in the history of the universe - Red Dead Redemption. Hillcoat, Cave, and Ellis would reunite for the post-apocalyptic Western, The Road (Viggo Mortensen, 2009). Cave and Ellis would go on to compose one of the greatest soundtracks to one of the greatest movies ever created... The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (Cave popping in with the cameo at the end). When it comes to the history of Westerns, these three have not only left their mark thus far, but they've helped to shape the direction and quality that lies ahead.

You weren't wrong in your description, but anyone familiar with the things I just mentioned will understand the movie a whole lot better if they understand what it's actually about before they see it. The highway lines after rails and rails was something I remember from first seeing the movie ~20 years ago, and the soundtrack is amazing. It does a great job of capturing the spirit of the whole thing IMO.

I highly recommend a 2008 Australian Neo-noir movie titled The Square. 86% on Rotten Tomatoes. If you like Coen brother's films, you will love this.

Chopper was not Eric Bana’s first film. It was actually The Castle from 1997 I believe.

Jo Nesbo's Headhunters is great. One of my favorite authors, but I didn't watch the movie for a long time because of subtitles.

Oops 24 Hour Party People is actually a true story of punk rock in Manchester UK. All the bands and people really live. From Sex pistols and Factory records and Tony Wilson, it is really a good look at late 1970's to about the 1990 when good turned bad. "Dance-chester" turned to Mad-chester

So when Spanish Prisoner came to our local Independent movie theater, I spent a week trying to convince my wife to go see it, her no was always always followed with” I don’t want to see a prison movie”😂 naturally she loved it! 😂

But to add to this list I would say 1 wild tales 2 Lars and the real girl 3 run Lola run 4 zola 5 compliance 6 the celebration 7 smile orange 8 kids 9 white god 10 coherence

24 Hour Party People is a true story, not a "mockumentary". Tony Wilson, Factory Records, the Sex Pistols, Joy Division, New Order, etc. It's a great film chronicling a very important moment in music history. It's also very funny.

I liked your video! Good on ya mate! But at 2:30 you say "the best western created in the 21st century so far" is The Proposition. Nope sorry that title goes to Hell or High water with out question. The 2nd place finish would be No Country for Old Men. Only receiving a 2nd place finish because the Coen brothers break the mold and it's not by formula a western. I know some people think it's a neo western but I don't think that fits either. But I digress. It still is a western to me and it gets 2nd place. The proposition can have 3rd place if you fancy it. I like your videos and I love getting new recommendations from people who care about movies. Keep doing what you do. Cheers Mate.

I do love your videos minus the ads most annoying is breakfast cereal. Maybe an explanation of Rotten tomatoes and how it works. I never know is more good or bad ? Most of the time I agree with you and not them Thanks from Cool Calif where it is over 100 today
