RADIO ON (1980)

CHRISTOPHER PETIT

Plot

A highly stylised British road movie as a comment on the 70s. DJ Beams drives from London to Bristol (play spot the location), in a battered old Rover, to unravel his brother's mysterious death, but it's the incidental characters that he meets on the way that provide the body of the film. Beautifully shot in monochrome and with a fantastic punky soundtrack including Bowie, Kraftwerk and Wreckless Eric.
