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.
Sublime1's avatar reminds me of a classic: The Blues Brothers!
Reverend Cleophus James: HAVE YOU SEEEEN THE LIGHT?
Sublime1: YES! YES! JESUS H. TAP-DANCING CHRIST... I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT!
I can't believe that didn't even occur to me until you posted it!
....and let's not forget Grease, Saturday Night Fever, Fame and the
Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Love all those, C.J. Let's not forget The Phantom of the Opera.

Yes, of course, that was a brilliant movie as well.
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.
How's about Chigago,Evita,Amadeus and Tommy :wink:
Airheads (incidentally costarring Fred McKean from
