anotheranonHighly recommended. Musically seems to focus mostly Joy Division and Happy Mondays, but other bands are definitely covered.
It's also terrifically funny, even if you don't know much about the history. The "Bez UFO" was particularly touched.
There are also a pile of Mancunian musicians with cameos in the film, which are pointed out in case you miss them.
One point of inaccuracy - the actor playing Shaun Ryder wasn't ugly enough :P
Great soundtrack too. Definitely a DVD purchase when it comes out.
