The bit that you skip #255: Simply Red – Fairground
“His music’s rubbish, and he’s ginger” declares God (maybe?) at the end of 24 Hour Party People to Tony Wilson. Both portrayed by Steve Coogan. It’s a film I love but I always felt the hate for Mick Hucknall was a bit excessive. Part of the joke, I guess?
Simply Red isn’t a bad band. You might think some of their stuff is bland or even blasé, but I’d never hate on them, and I like two albums of theirs (Life, Stars). Their singles were music I would do homework to (and even write) late at night, near midnight, when I was 15 or so.
A radio station in Mexico called Azul 89 used to play easy going rock and pop all day long, and I felt it wasn’t offensive to my parents to listen to music like this while working.
Fairground was the lead single of Life and I have the song intrinsically wrapped around a Mexican amusement park called La Feria de Chapultepec. It no longer exists and for a while it was a mythical place that I never went to with my family, but with friends. The high school I was in, and later the University I went to, both had events there, where you had a free entry to any of the rides. We all went for the rollercoaster, with its neverending, chaotic line. Nobody respected the line because no one took care. The wooden rollercoaster felt like it was going to fall apart entirely if a mouse sneezed.
La Feria de Chapultepec was always badly illuminated, unkempt, and possibly the site of many unlawful carnal knowledge. But for me, it was another amusement park on my list of places I wanted to visit. I never had a bad time, but I can understand why it got completely redeveloped. It’s a shame that now it’s a massive shopping centre with a couple of middling rides and a small section of the rollercoaster left as a tribute/macabre spectacle.
Things change, time goes on, and the smell of churros and fried food seeping through the hair of your date will eventually fade.
(for Denisse).

The bit that you skip #194: Happy Mondays – Do it better
24 hour party people is a film that is very close to my dearest memories. Michael Winterbottom’s post-modern, half-truths, half-myths film feels like the intertwining of two different stories: the rise and fall of Joy Division and their gloomy music and the rise and fall of Happy Mondays and their drug-fuelled Madchester defining sound.
A movie I saw at the Nottingham Savoy a few weeks after arriving, the whole story blew my mind. I had an inkling of Joy Division thanks to several covers (Dead Souls by Nine Inch Nails is fave) but I never had an idea of how emblematic they were until I watched the film. It’s cool that the remark about Ian Curtis not been this dark personality conveyed by the myth of his music, but a guy who had some serious doubts about himself while still having a sense of humour. Winterbottom’s casting of Sean Harris (seen later as a supervillain in Mission Impossible) is perfect, just matched by Anton Corbjin’s casting of Sam Riley.
The Happy Mondays section of the film never quite matches the intensity of the first half, but it’s commented on by the constant camera breaking of Steve Coogan. The self-aggrandising myth of Madchester blows things out of proportion, just matching the Mondays’ own sense of irreverence. Danny Cunningham’s portrayal of Shaun Ryder almost feels like something out of Bottom, with plenty of violence and slapstick. However, there is an understated sadness on the meteoric fall of Happy Mondays and how they took Factory Records down with them.
Coogan’s Tony Wilson constantly hyping up his bands is a memorable part of the flick. His off-kilter comparison with W.B. Yeats grows on you, especially when the morbidly simplistic lyrics of a track like Do it better strangely earworm themselves into your soul.
I worked my way through the Happy Mondays’ catalogue thanks to this film and the music library at the University of Nottingham. I can spot the moment the drugs did the talking and singing and kinda lament they lost themselves into a K-Hole. But then again, they wouldn’t be a mythical band if they hadn’t destroyed themselves.
Double double good indeed.

SAIPAN (2025)
Saipan demuestra que una película sobre fútbol puede ser mucho más que una sucesión de partidos, goles y vestuarios. Lo que los directores Glenn Leyburn y Lisa Barros D’Sa ponen sobre la pantalla no es una crónica deportiva al uso, sino un intenso duelo psicológico entre dos hombres incapaces de ceder un milímetro de terreno…

EL OJO CRITICO.
LO QUE APRENDÍ DE MI PINGUINO (2024)
En Lo que aprendí de mi pingüino, Peter Cattaneo se aleja de la estridencia para abrazar una historia de apariencia mínima, pero cargada de una calidez que se filtra poco a poco, casi sin que uno se dé cuenta. No es una película que golpee, sino una que se posa —como el propio animal que la titula— con una delicadeza inesperada sobre el ánimo del espectador…
