| Administrator   |  The Boat That Rocked/Pirate Radio
The year is 1966. Eighteen-year-old Carl has just been expelled from school, and his mother is concerned that he may need a new direction in life. So, naturally, she sends him to live with a group of lawless disc jockeys running a pirate radio station off of a boat in the North Sea. Thus begins a bizarre coming-of-age tale in which Carl gets entangled in a series of rowdy misadventures, providing him with an education in music, women, and the meaning of family.

the only way i will probably watch this is if i walk into the wrong theater when i'm drunk, or hiding from the cops and i run into the theater that this is playing in. i can't stand the running into stuff gag.

| Administrator | Pirate Radio Release Date: November 13, 2009 Starring: Philip Seymour Hoffman, Bill Nighy, Rhys Ifans, Nick Frost and Kenneth Branagh. In Britain 1966 recently expelled student, Carl has been sent by his mother to find some direction in life by visiting his godfather, Quentin. However, Quentin is the boss of Radio Rock, a pirate radio station in the middle of the North Sea, populated by an eclectic crew of rock-and-roll deejays. Life on the North Sea is eventful. Carl discovers the opposite sex and who his real father is. Meanwhile, pirate stations have come to the attention of government minister Dormand, who is out for the blood of these lawbreakers. In an era when the stuffy corridors of power stifle anything approaching youthful exuberance, Dormand seizes the chance to score a political goal, and The Marine Broadcasting Offences Act is passed in an effort to outlaw the pirates and to remove their ghastly influence from the land once and for all. What results is a literal storm on the high seas. With Radio Rock in peril, its devoted fans rally together and stage an epic Dunkirk-style hundred-boat rescue to save their deejay heroes. Some things may come to an end, but rock and roll never dies. Theatrical Trailer(s)~
