Storyline
Plot Summary:
Set in London in 1977, the plot takes place against the background of the Silver Jubilee. This is a buddy movie between two friends Chris and Caz who run a pirate radio station from a tower block in Dalston, East London. The film starts with a murder of their friend TJ while cruising for sex in the local park at night and, while Caz is cut up by the death of his friend, Chris seems to want to push forward towards a professional career in commercial radio. They both want to promote soul music while the prevailing popular music is punk...

rebels without a clue
I saw this film shortly after it's release, and felt quite cheated. It'stitle and advertising gave me the impression that it would be about theblack DJ sound systems and soul scene which was at it's height in Englandduring the late '70s and early '80s. But this only took up a fraction offilm time. Instead, I had to sit through a convoluted sub-plot featuring amurder mystery which appeared all of a sudden during the movie, a verygratuitous gay sex scene, and generally bad acting and direction. Therewere a few moments where the protagonists had brushes with the law, and Ithought at last this film was going somewhere and would depict the racismofthe justice system accurately. But this was not the case, and thesescenesappeared to have been either badly written, or edited. And when onecharacter deceides to carry out his own murder investigation, I found itlaughable. I understand that no film can be 100% accurate when depictinganera or events around it, and that it should be entertaining to the viewer.But at least a good attempt should be made to get the basics right. Forexample, hardly any of the black male actors sported an afro hairstyle orwore flares, which would have been as common as a rainy day in Londonduring1977. Blacks mixing with Punks? I'm no sure about that. They would haveconsidered a lot of Punks to be similar to the skinheads which carried outalot of racist attacks at that time. Also another sex scene featuringSophieOkenedo and Valentine Nonyela, was not handled well at all, and wascertainly not as explicit as the previous gay sex scenes which says a lotabout it's director. By trying to show that homosexuality in the blackbritish community is opposed more than in the white, I feel is absolutenonsense. Homophobia has no colour preference, and being black, it'sdirector Isaac Julien should know better really.

young soul rebels
firstly this film has some mistakes in it,i was a soul girl back int heday,punks and soul boys weren't pally,but not enemies either,the didn'tgo to the same clubs,the fashion is correct but the music is out oftime ,some of the music came out maybe up to 2 years later,that apartit does pick up the atmosphere of the day and the vibe and is at leastacknowledging the soul scene,and the cult of soul boys and girls ,amajor thing,but very unknown which is odd,i guess the write must have abit of info of the movement,still as a fun film its OK and does bring afewmemories i think unless you were part of the scene you would find thisa bit dull,it is hollow ,but the clothes and dancing are all spoton,although gay guys did have there own disco clubs,again fairlyunderground as back then it wasn't as tolerated as it is,rightly so,nowas so many other films have been made about punks and skinheads it godto see a movie reflecting a little known but extremely popular movement
