Quote:
In the Summer of 1987, four friends, reeling from the sudden break-up of the iconic British band The Smiths, embark on a night out of partying to mourn their musical loss. At the same time, an impassioned Smiths fan takes a local radio DJ hostage at gunpoint and forces him to play nothing but Smiths tracks. With the radio station playing as the soundtrack to their night, the friends go on a wild journey of self-discovery that will transform them forever. Featuring an incredible soundtrack – including 20 songs from The Smiths – Shoplifters of the World is a glorious ode to the craziness of the ‘80s and the power of music to change people’s lives.



Doesn't look very good, and sure, Morrissey's been mostly cancelled, but it's The Smiths.

A likely story. Smiths fans don't know how to use guns.

I'm pretty sure something like that actually happened by the guy forced the DJ to play Bowie records.
