Pirate Radio is listed as an alternate title on the movie, but it does not appear to be used. Perhaps creation of a new movie with the US title would be appropriate?

Used where? The original title is The Boat That Rocked. Pirate Radio is the title for the US.

Specifically, the alternate title is never returned by the API or the website as the primary title when the search term is "Pirate Radio" or when the user's location is the US. The US user expects to see the US title, just as the UK user expects to see the UK title. Short of the developers making changes to the site or the API, the simplest solution seems to be the creation of a second movie bearing the US title as the primary title.

Creating a duplicate entry is not an option as it is against our rules. You could always create a thread in website support or API support as the admin is more likely to see and reply there.
