Footlose|||There are a lot of good ones, but my favorite is Pink Floyd's "The Wall", even though my personal imagery is much different from the movie. But that's the beauty of art. We can take from it, whatever feelings it invokes. "Comfortably Numb" and "Mother" are my two favorite songs from "The Wall". I get a different feeling from them. It's no big surprise that they were both actually written separately from the story of the wall, and added in, because they fit the story of "Pink". To me, they always bring me some solace to the haunting memory's of a deeply troubled childhood.
As for the "Rockumentary" type of film, I am torn between Black Sabbath "The Last Supper" and "Woodstock".
