The Ballad of Wallis Island
A breezy, heartwarming tale steeped in nostalgia, THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND is a cozy crowdpleaser about misfits, music and the messy relationships that define us.
Sundance's breakout charmer THE BALLAD OF WALLIS ISLAND follows Charles (Tim Key), a sweetly eccentric lottery winner who lives alone on a remote island and dreams of reuniting his favorite band, Mortimer-McGwyer, played by three-time Academy Award-nominee Carey Mulligan and Tom Basden. Charles invites them to Wallis Island for a performance, but there's a twist: the band has no idea they'll be getting back together, and the intimate concert turns out to be a solo show for Charles.There is no more picturesque location to set a charming British comedy than this fictional remote Welsh island. It’s a romantic locale that sets the scene for the remarkable chemistry that longtime comedy partners Basden and Key, who write and star here, have developed with each other. They've created a hilarious and charming exploration of music, relationships and the magic of art that will keep you humming long after the credits have rolled.ComedyPT1H39MPG-132025-04-11Carey Mulligan
