The Ballad of Wallis Island

Set on a gorgeous island off the coast of Wales, The Ballad of Wallis Island follows Charles (Tim Key), an eccentric lottery winner, who lives alone on a remote island and dreams of reuniting his favorite musician duo, McGwyer Mortimer (Tom Basden and Carey Mulligan). His fantasy turns into reality when the former bandmates—and former lovers—accept his invitation to play a private show at his home on Wallis Island. Can it be this easy? Without giving away much: absolutely not. “Directed by James Griffiths, this is the sort of hilarious heart-warmer that only comes around once or twice a year to offer a blessed break from darkness, snobbery and streaming schlock. It’s so easy to love, even if love doesn’t come easy for its characters”—Johnny Oleksinski, New York Post.
