Rok 1973. Hilly Kristal (Alan Rickman) otwiera klub muzyczny, w którym chce pokazywać artystów reprezentujących country, bluegrass i bluesa - nazywa go więc CBGB. Gdy okazuje się, że zespoły country nie chcą występować w jego lokalu, Kristal otwiera go dla zespołów rockowych, którym stawia tylko jeden warunek – chce, by grały swoją autorską muzykę. To w jego klubie debiutują największe punkrockowe i nowofalowe zespoły: Blondie, Television, Ramones, Talking Heads, Dead Boys czy The Police. Doskonała ścieżka dźwiękowa, umiejętnie oddany klimat lat 70., i pasjonująca historia niezwykłego człowieka, który ponad wszystko kocha muzykę i artystów

Launching alternative comedy onto our screens, the show made household names of its performers and writers and proved to be a huge influence, despite the BBC reportedly being baffled by what they'd commissioned back in 1982.

In 1928, as the talkies threw the film industry and film language into turmoil, Chaplin decided that his Tramp character would not be heard. City Lights would not be a talking picture, but it would have a soundtrack. Chaplin personally composed a musical score and sound effects for the picture. With Peter Lord, the famous co-creator of Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit, we see how Chaplin became the king of slapstick comedy and the superstar of the movies.
