A slight movie that goes into the beginnings

A slight movie that goes into the beginnings of The Smiths. It was absorbing at times. It reveals the humdrum world and the difficulty artistic people have in finding a place in it that is meaningful, much like the story of Ian Curtis. It's weakened by the lack of music, and is that because it was unauthorized? I don't know. There was enough runtime and it would have benefited the film greatly.

I have no idea why this movie is

I have no idea why this movie is rated so low! Jack Lowden is such an incredible actor, and he really brought this script to life. The visuals and overall aesthetic of this film were just stunning, and even if the pacing felt a bit wonky, I was invested in this story (whether or not it's accurate). And sure, it sucks that they didn't get the rights to The Smiths' actual music, but the story takes place before the band was even created! So it doesn't even matter! I truly enjoyed this film, especially Jack Lowden's wonderfully quirky performance. He is such a prolific actor, and I hope more people can watch this film without misinterpreting it!

Come for the shots of water flowing vigorously

Come for the shots of water flowing vigorously and stay for the other visual metaphors of Morrissey's wonderful lyrics in The Smiths (a few claim Director Mark Gill even the biggest fans will miss). Superlative performances from both protagonist Lowden and best friend Linder played by Jessica Brown Findlay as well as the supporting cast to the singer's humdrum Mancunian life. The era is faithfully and lovingly recreated even if the spectator is left in no doubt the past was largely squalid and escape for the principal characters largely comprehensible.
