| | The Wall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The Wall is a rock opera and concept album by Pink Floyd. | | | The wall was eventually torn down during "The Trial", and Pink Floyd themselves joined the surrogate band in front of the wreckage of the wall to perform the finale, "Outside The Wall". | | | This was due to the grandiosity of the performance, which involved constructing a giant wall across the stage between band and audience, not to mention staple Pink Floyd props such as giant screens, flying pigs and pyrotechnics. |

| | The Wall Movie: PINK FLOYD |
| | Inspired by Pink Floyd's album of the same name, Pink Floyd: TheWall is a dark, expressionistic musical, told from the point of view of Pink, a depressed rock musician. | | | The film is structured around Pink's reflections on his life, all of which center on the building of "the wall." This wall is a metaphor for psychological isolation, a barrier Pink creates to distance himself from his pain. | | | Some of the scenes are based on Roger Waters' own life, while others like Pink's body-shaving episode, are drawn from the life of Syd Barrett, the early Pink Floyd member who had to leave the band and check into an insane asylum. |

| | Unlike other films of rock operas (such as Pink Floyd's The Wall) the album is not dubbed over the film; the different actors sing the songs instead of The Who. | | | Tommy was a 1975 musical film, based on The Who's 1969 "rock opera" concept album Tommy. | | | For the most part the original ideas of Tommy's unique perception (being that Tommy can experience the world in a spiritual manner that average humans cannot with all of their senses being assaulted by other sensations) are only hinted at in the film version. |

| | The play's journey to the big screen is a successful one, featuring eye-catching animation by Emily Hubley that creates sort of a Pink Floyd: The Wall vibe. | | | Rock musicals have not represented the very best in cinema (consider The Who's miserable Tommy film, and I'm a Who fan). | | | Standout tunes include "Tear Me Down," a tune in which Hedwig likens herself to the Berlin Wall, "Midnight Radio," a dramatic ode to music, and my personal favorite, "Wig in a Box," which features a sing-along complete with a bouncing wig over the lyrics. |

| | Pink Floyd The Wall successfully contrasts reality and fantasy by cutting between live action and Gerald Scarfe's savagely satirical animation to dissect the mind of a burnt-out rock star (Geldof) in disintegration. | | | Floyd afionados will also recognise elements of the story of Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd's original genius, who left/was ousted from the band in 1968 because of drug-addled, eratic behaviour. | | | The story is apparently based on the experiences of scripter and Pink Floyd founder member Roger Waters, who must have been a miserable sod if this is anything to go by. |
