I watched Pirate Radio last night at home with Obi. Also known as The Boat That Rocked in the United Kingdom, this movie is really a great movie that talks about a piece of rock and roll history.
The story pretty much revolves around Radio Rock, one of the many pirate radio stations that played pop and rock music over the United Kingdom back when radio stations were only allowed to play pop and rock songs for 45 minutes every day.
I think it's no fun if that were the case today.
With Bill Nighy, Rhys Ifans, and Phillip Seymour Hoffman heading the pack, the movie was a lot of fun to watch. The music was what got me. I enjoyed the tunes they were playing on pirate radio back then. So much so that Obi told me that I really should have lived during that period.
I can't say that I disagree with that, though. Haha.
Anyway, I don't have much to say about this movie except that it's amazing. Each and every radio personality in the movie was so unique and animated that you can't help but love them all, however asshole-ish some of them may be.
