Blackly comic, music-infused biopic about the life - and tragic death - of maverick British songwriter and record producer Joe Meek. Flamboyantly gay in a time when homosexuality remained outlawed, tone deaf, drug addicted, famously paranoid and obsessed with black magic, Meek (Con O’Neill) was responsible for a string of 1960s chart-toppers including ‘Have I the Right’, ‘Just Like Eddie’, ‘Johnny, Remember Me’ and the groundbreaking ‘Telstar’. Kevin Spacey co-stars as ‘Major’ Wilfred Banks, the businessman who bankrolls Meeks’s home studio at 304 Holloway Road in North London.
