So, 'No City Fun' is this interesting little film from '79 that essentially expands on Liz Naylor's piece in the 'City Fun' fanzine. It's got this raw, gritty feel, capturing the essence of the late '70s punk scene. The use of Joy Division's music really sets a haunting tone, layering a sense of melancholy and rebellion throughout. The pacing feels almost like a collage, with snippets of life that reflect the atmosphere of Manchester at the time. It's a unique snapshot, blending the documentary style with a sort of artistic expression that's hard to forget. Honestly, it’s not just a film, it's a vibe, an experience that echoes the discontent and energy of that era.
'No City Fun' is a bit of an obscure gem, often overshadowed by flashier titles from the same era. It's available in limited formats, with early VHS copies being particularly sought after among collectors. The scarcity of legitimate releases adds to its allure, making it a notable find for anyone interested in the punk scene or the evolution of music documentaries. As a collector, you'll appreciate not just the film itself but the cultural context it embodies.
