I loved The Commitments and recently re-watched Quadrophenia and The Last Waltz. Any other favorites?

Pink Floyd The Wall, is great. Saw it first in my early teens and liked it, saw it in my early twenties, and understood it.

I can't believe that didn't even occur to me until you posted it!

Haven't seen Spinal Tap, sublime, but I see it did for rock and roll what The Sound of Music did for the hills.

It is a satire aimed at early 80's late 70's metal bands, hilarious movie and on the spot with so many references. Spinal Tap

Thanks, sublime. Sounds hilarious. I'll have to check that out, Chi.

Good thread, J_B.

Now I'm off to watch Monk. Nite, all.

Airheads (incidentally costarring Fred McKean from Spinal Tap) was a surprisingly entertaining movie.
