RADIO ON (1979) NYFF 2021


This low key road film has a man driving from London to Bristol and meeting an assortment of people along the way. 

Feeling more like something that Wim Wenders would make, thanks to being shot by Martin Schafer his frequent collaborator from the period, this is a film that is more of interest for the parts then the whole. I love how Sting shows up and does a song in a gas station. I love some of the other people we meet along the way.

Actually this film is more memorable for some of the smaller bits than the whole. The whole came off as a drab film that  was kind of nothing.

Worth a look for the bits but then again…
