There is a running theme, that being the tale of “Pink Floyd” (Bob Geldof) who lost his dad during the war, saw his wife abandon him and who ever since he can remember has been sheltering behind a wall - physical and psychological - trying to recover from an overbearing education that did nothing although stifle this young man’s innate sense of creativity. If you remember the title sequence from “Yes, Minister” then you’ll recall the pointed and exaggerated style of artistry from Gerald Scarfe who provides my favourite sequence towards the end of this, but also designed a few of the other poignant episodes in the life of a man whom, with the possible exception of Roger Daltrey, I can’t imagine being better portrayed than by a Geldof who puts his heart and soul into something that convinces pretty much entirely.

Engaging premise, but the execution falls short. I can't deny decent performances, even though nothing groundbreaking. A mixed bag that still has its merits.

Today, there is some consensus in considering it one of the best rock albums ever and “Another Brick in the Wall” has become an anthem for teenage rebellion, which does not conform to the rules, dictates and conventions. I listen, casually, but I wouldn't pay for a ticket. There is no plot other than the one that goes on in the head of the protagonist, the rock vocalist Pink, who seems to be experiencing a very deep depression, as his social and emotional isolation increases, caused by an absent father (he died in the war when he was a child), an overprotective mother, a series of abusive teachers and a recent divorce.

The story gets bogged down in the second act. the evidence suggests some of the performances feel a bit wooden.

A mixed bag that still has its merits. I gotta be honest, the kind of drama that stays with you for days.
