Dare to Be Different

U2, Talking Heads, Depeche Mode, Blondie, Duran Duran, Tears for Fears, The Clash, The Cure: Over half a billion records sold but you may never have heard of them if not for a small suburban radio station on Long Island, NY: WLIR. In August, 1982, a small group of radio visionaries knew they couldn't compete with the mega-stations in New York City. With one brave decision, they changed the sound of radio forever. Program Director Denis McNamara, the 'LIR crew and the biggest artists of the era tell the story of how they battled the FCC, the record labels, mega-radio and all the conventional rules to create a musical movement that brought the New Wave to America.

It was an awesome movie. Loved the suspense.

Loved it! Busting to go to the loo (far too much Diet Coke)! but didn't want to miss a minute of this cracker of sparky and sparkly joyous romp.

Great Movie, If you haven't seen this movie, I highly recommend it.

Best Music movie I've seen. Better than all movies of recent time.

Watched with mouth open. Ellen Goldfarb you are genius! Very Powerful Movie...

Keep pumpin' these movies out! After walking out after the movie i was very tempted to go buy another ticket and go back and watch it again!

When I saw New Wave: Dare to Be Different for the first time I just fell in love with the film. It is definitely a true masterpiece with a classic story!

Great story for Documentary lovers which keeps you guessing what is going to happen next.

I hope that this film stands the test of time because it is "classic" material.

I highly recommend. Has a great story line.
