Pink Floyd - The Wall |
Average rating:  |
| Fabulous | | This movie provides a creative story, set only to the music of Pink Floyd. Still, it shouldn't be viewed as an rock opera, but as a real movie, and should be enjoyed like a real movie. We are told, in fragments and memories, the story of Pink, who grew up fatherless and under the control of a stifling mother, and then went on to have an unfortunate relationship with his wife. He slowly becomes more and more detatched from reality, until we realize he has finally snapped, and has been building a "Wall" for years to distance himself from the world. The story plays out in a very interesting and visually artistic way. The music gives every scene a dazzling emotion. |
| Pink Floyd - The Wall - | | MEDICAL/CULTURAL/MENTAL/ANY-CONTINENTAL | | Being a physician - I can't get rid of looking to this movie in from a professional point of view: It is not just a mere diagnosis-making-statement -a history of a mind tortured by the most painful points of the time (SIGN OF THE TIMES): (1) "family" made of a mother and a boy child (father may have died in WW2 or divorced - does it make a difference?), (2) overdose and a consequent split of a marriage (crack, spiff, junk, music, work - or anything other chemistry/social driven stuff - and she's gone ... I know what I am talking about ...), (3) aggressive reaction to a public personal/emotional humiliation ... or Give me ANY OTHER names of your nightmares - and they ARE THERE!
I consider the BEST-SELLING effect just a material documenting of a fact, that THE WALL in its audio and video presentational makes a major impact on the majority of the now livings - me included VERY ... :-)
Talk to me in 200 years (I may have changed my mind by then ... :-) - but NOT NOW! WE ARE ALL THERE. P.S. Hey Amazon.com - are you sure that 7-stars would be considered 2-B an ATYPICAL form of voting? ... :-) |
| - Pink Floyd - The Wall | | The WALL | - Pink, (Bob Geldof) is the main character in this remarkable movie directed by Alan Parker. Pink is a Rock star who spends most of his time locked in a hotel room watching classic war movies from his TV-set with a lot of [bad] channels...then slowly he starts losing his mind as he reminisces about his past, that brought him to the isolation from the world. The whole story of "The wall" unfolds by the phenomenal, fantastic songs made by Pink Floyd. It is so important to add that Gerald Scarfe,a prominent cartoonist, played a great role on making this movie a huge success.
If you happen to like,Pink Floyd's music,this movie is a must have and a must see.Until I now I've had it only on video tape and I have watched it tens of times and now when I have it on DVD I'll watch it hundreds of times as this movie never gets boring and because this movie everytime you watch it gives you a new understanding of it. |
