Movies that Rock

If you're a fan of rock music and missed seeing the movie Pirate Radio when Marty showed it in May, I recommend checking it out.  Not being around in the 1960's I knew that rock music was controversial but didn't realize that in some places it was actually banned from playing on the radio.  Pirate Radio tells the story of the British government's attempted ban of pirate radio and its defiance by the fictional pirate station ship, "Radio Rock."   With a soundtrack as good as the movie Pirate Radio will keep you remembering the 1960's.

If rock movies are your thing, check out these other great titles:

  • Gimme Shelter
  • This Is Spinal Tap
  • Woodstock
  • Almost Famous
  • Roustabout
  • That Thing You Do!
  • Saturday Night Fever
