Wir befinden uns in den Sechzigern des letzten Jahrhunderts. Der neu aufkommenden "guten" Musik wird im BBC wöchentlich nur einige Stunden
zugestanden. Die Moral der Bevölkerung könnte Schaden nehmen. Dagegen hilft nur ein Piratensender auf der Nordsee, der rund um die Uhr Rock ('n' Roll) sendet. Ein locker, flockiger Film mit klasse Musik.
"The Boat That Rocked" is an ensemble comedy in which the romance takes place between the young people of the '60s and pop music. It's about a band of rogue DJs that captivated Britain, playing the music that defined a generation and standing up to a government that, incomprehensibly, preferred jazz. The Count, a big, brash, American god of the airwaves; Quentin, the boss of Radio Rock -- a pirate radio station in the middle of the North Sea that's populated by an eclectic crew of rock and roll DJs; Gavin, the greatest DJ in Britain who has just returned from his drug tour of America to reclaim his rightful position; Dave, an ironic, intelligent and cruelly funny co-broadcaster; and a fearsome British government official out for blood against the drug takers and lawbreakers of a once-great nation. |
