'Telstar' Trailer Online

22nd April 2009

Telstar movie stillNick Moran's biopic of legendary producer Joe Meek ‘Telstar: The Movie' will hit British cinemas nationwide on June the 19th.

Starring Kevin Spacey along a young Brit cast that also features Ralph Little and James Corden, Telstar is the story of the world's first independent record producer, Joe Meek. A maverick genius who enjoyed phenomenal early success with TELSTAR - the biggest selling record of its time - before bad luck, depression, heartbreak and paranoia forced him into murder and suicide.

A gay, amphetamine addicted, talented but deeply troubled soul, Meek dabbled in the occult. He is already an iconic figure in the world of British pop.

Far from being a maudlin tale, this stranger than fiction true story is a satirical comic drama revealing the many sides of Joe Meek, a man who is now revered as a pioneer in the field of popular music.
