In 1966, arguably British pop music's finest era, the BBC played only two hours of rock and roll every week. But pirate radio blasted rock and pop from the high seas 24 hours a day. And 25 million people - more than half the population of Britain - listened to these pirates every single day.
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 Boat That Rocked is written by Richard Curtis, the Emmy, BAFTA and WGA Award-winning filmmaker whose projects have included films from Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill, Bridget Jones's Diary and Love Actually to Mr. Bean and Blackadder. It will also be directed by Curtis, his second directorial outing, but first non-rom-com.
The soundtrack to this movie (not yet scheduled for release in South Africa) is jam packed with music by some of music’s most well-known superstars, including The Who, Cream, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Troggs, Dusty Springfield, The Kinks, Cat Stevens, David Bowie and also a previously unreleased track by Duffy, called “Stay With Me Baby”.
