I didn’t expect this movie to be so obscure. Indeed, not even 10 Listal users have rated it so far and I was only the 2nd who apparently saw the damned thing. Anyway, for more than 20 years, I have been a massive fan of Pink Floyd and, if I’m not mistaken, the soundtrack for this movie was their first CD I ever bought. Indeed, when I wanted to discover their music, I was at the music shop with one of my best friends and when I was wondering which one I should get , for some reasons beyond me, he advised me to buy this one. Eventually, it was a good advice and I really loved the damned thing. For many years, I was wondering about the movie it was supposed to be coming from. I mean, I had never read anything about it, I had never met anyone who actually saw the damned thing but I sure wanted to see it. Eventually, I think something like 7 years later, another one of my best friends bought a DVD player and I wanted to buy him a cool movie and I finally bumped into this flick. To be honest, I don’t think this buddy really cared about Pink Floyd but I had to watch the damned thing. So, how was this movie after all? I have to admit it, it wasn’t really a masterpiece but I still enjoyed it. Basically, it is a rather typical drug drama with some decent directing and average acting but I just loved this soundtrack, it worked so well with this movie and it made the whole thing quite mesmerizing to behold. To conclude, it is definitely an acquired taste but I still think it is worth a look, especially if you like the genre or if you are a fan of Pink Floyd.
