Pirate Radio

While a wealthy, eccentric tanker captain (Bill Nighy), his teenage godson (Tom Sturridge), a lesbian cook (Katherine Parkinson), and a motley crew of free-spirited Radio Rock DJs (Philip Seymour Hoffman, Rhys Ifans, Nick Frost, Chris O'Dowd, Tom Wisdom, Rhys Darby, Ralph Brown, Tom Brooke, Ike Hamilton, Will Adamsdale, et al.) broadcast off-colored commentary and rock'n roll music 24/7 off the coast of England in the North Sea during the mid-1960s in this wacky, fun-filled, entertaining, factually inspired, ensemble comedy, a stuffy British minister (Kenneth Branagh) and his right-hand man (Jack Davenport) desperately try to get the popular rogue group off the air.
