 FAROUT MAN This is a cool classic
This movie is a classic, for it takes you back to a time where most of the world only cared about 3 things and those of us from the "HEAVY TRIP" age know what those 3 things are and life seemed easy then, unlike now but still it's a good movie you might want to own it.

Great cast. Roger did pretty good here along with Tina and Elton.

 Tommy - Double agent for Pink Floyd's The Wall
This movie is the story of a boy, Tommy (Played by Rodger Daltrey), who had a horribly traumatic experience as a child, which made him deaf, dumb and blind. His mother begins to go insane because she can't grasp how he is still sane without knowing anything about the world around him. As he ages he becomes a hero to the youth of America by becoming the Pinball Wizard. After he gains his sight, hearing and intellect he becomes a god to his followers who eventually turn on him. What bothers me about this movie is that it reminds me of Pink Floyd's The Wall. A boy is traumatized as a child, grows up to have a fan base, and then turns into a dictator of sorts, who eventually turn on him. It's basically the same story, just told differently and with a different soundtrack. I like this movie because it's put together well, the story is interesting and takes you into the mind of a very crazy band, The Who. I suggest it for anyone who loves rock and roll music and has a taste for something odd told in a facinating way. 4 stars from me because its such a cool movie and its nice to know that The Who could do something besides just play cool music.

 A Great Work of Art
Kick back, turn up the volume and enjoy. This is the kind of movie you can play all weekend while you have friends over and clean your house. Elton John, Tina Turner, Ann Margaret, and Eric Clapton are all fantastic. Great choreography, design, and music. Delightful campy fun!
