the boat that rocked

if you're looking for an evening of pure escapist fun, feeling generally nostalgic and cool about the legacy of the 60s fashion and music, and would like to forget history for a while and go with the party mood, go see this film - you won't be let down and you'll get what you're looking for: an amazing soundtrack (although, as many didn't hesitate to point out, not entirely historically accurate), with the likes of the rolling Ssones, the kinks, dusty springfield, the hollies, jimmy hendrix, buddy holly, and many many more, with the charismatic bill nighy and a bunch of other not-quite-so-ordinary eccentric characters, more or less familiar to you, depending on how you enjoy british (and american) comedy. even if you don't know the actors, even if you're not into the music of the 60s, you've got pure feel-good fun thrown in to top it off for a great evening of the 60s rock'n'roll partying. and it's partying in the true 60s sense of the word.
and my favoritos cast is young carl.. :p
