Archäologie (CDIII): THAT’LL BE THE DAY
w/ David Essex, Ringo Starr, Keith Moon, Dave Edmunds
THAT’LL BE THE DAY (1973) Part one of the well done, two-film story of Jim McClain (David Essex) and his quest for music fame and fortune (and more birds) in 50s working class Britain. Also features Ringo Starr (reprising his early years as a teddy boy), Keith Moon and Billy Fury. More of a character study than a music film (though, it has some cool music), That’ll Be The Day covers McClain’s early years as a shit, routinely cheating on, then leaving his wife with a new-born baby. Producer David Puttnam told MOJO Magazine that his original idea for this film was based on Harry Nilsson’s semi-autobiographical song, “1941,” about a child abandoned by his father, only to grow up and abandon his own.

Diese Filme, die in 50s working class Britain spielen, haben etwas ganz Besonderes, - wenn sie gut gemacht sind wie dieser.
