In Cinemas APRIL 1
To celebrate the release of Richard Curtis’ hilarious new comedy The Boat That Rocked in cinemas April 1, LondonNet is offering five lucky people the chance to get their hands on a limited edition mini jukebox which plays songs from the film’s awesome soundtrack.
Directed by Richard Curtis and starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, Bill Nighy, Nick Frost, Rhys Ifans and Gemma Arterton, THE BOAT THAT ROCKED is an ensemble comedy, where the romance is between the young people of the 60s and the pop music. It’s about a band of DJs that captivate Britain, playing the music that defines a generation and standing up to a government that incomprehensibly prefers jazz. In 1966, British pop music’s finest era, the BBC played just two hours of rock and roll every week. But pirate radio played rock and pop from the high seas 24 hours a day. And 25 million people, more than half the population of Britain, listened to the pirates every single day.
The soundtrack that rocked a nation, and a decade, includes an exclusive Duffy song, The Who, The Kinks, Jimi Hendrix, & David Bowie.
