4/10
Dated British musical comedy drama

Warning: Spoilers
THE GOLDEN DISC is a dated British musical comedy drama from 1958, set at the beginning of the new wave popularity for rock and roll in the UK. Lee Patterson, the imported Canadian star of fare such as JACK THE RIPPER, plays a struggling coffee shop owner who decides to help out an up and coming singer after he hears him one night. What follows is a laborious plot involving trials and tribulations involving record companies and labels, but it doesn't really shine much of a light on the industry. There are a lot of musical numbers but they're not quite as lively as those found elsewhere, such as in SIX-FIVE SPECIAL.
