Chris Petit's cuIt cIassic Radio On is one of the most striking feature debuts in British cinema a haunting blend of edgy mystery story and existentiaI road movie, crammed with eerie evocations of English landscape and weather. Stunningly photographed in monochrome by Wim Wenders' assistant cameraman Martin Schäfer, Radio On is driven by a startIing new wave soundtrack featuring David Bowie, Kraftwerk, Lene Lovich, Ian Dury, Wreckless Eric, Robert Fripp and Devo, and reveaIs an earIy screen performance by Sting. FolIowing a young London DJ (David Beames) on the road to BristoI to investigate the mysterious death of his brother, Radio On offers a unique, compelIing and even mythic vision of a late 1970s EngIand, staIled between faiIed hopes of cuIturaI and social change and the imminent upheavals of Thatcherism. |
