does anyone remember that bit in 24 hour party people

whiterussian [Edit] [Delete] 5 replies 17:02, 19 January '09

they're in the car and ian and tony are talking about whether bowie is a fraud for not dying at 25. tony says: 'yeats is the greatest poet since dante. if he'd died at 25...' ian says: 'then i'd have heard of him, tony'

but i don't remember the bit in between, and it's not on imdb. basically, why do they start talking about yeats? WHY? i'm trying to quote it as accurately as possible but i don't have the dvd available atm.

anyone?

  • I know what you mean

    I think they just talk about Bowie though. Ian says summat along the lines of 'All he talks about is death and suicide. He's thirty.'

    IDK. I have the DVD at home if that helps.

    • yeah

      he says 'he's 30 now! or 29, something.'
      but then tony starts going on about yeats for some reason and i'm struggling to remember why
      i also have the dvd at home, thanks though
