The Boat That Rocked
Surprise, surprise, I watched a movie this weekend. I had wanted to see this one for months now. First it premiered in London under the title Pirate Radio and it seemed like it took forever to get a North American distribution date and once it finally did it only played in select theaters. Boo! Well, it finally came out on DVD under the title The Boat That Rocked and it sure did rock. The first thing I want to make note of is Tom Sturridge. Where have you been and when can we see more of you? My God – how can you not fall for Young Carl? He’s just the cutest. This movie is a comedy which takes place in London during the 60’s when rock music defined a generation. At a time when the government tried to control what the people listened to and instead of listening to the government, a group of rogue DJ’s took to the sea’s to give the people what they couldn’t live without…Rock Music. Can you imagine how different the world would be without The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Elvis
