Please note

Sorry, we aren't able to make images or video for this item available to the public online.

Pink Floyd’s landmark album was translated into an original rock music motion picture experience. Bob Geldof plays Pink, a burnt out rock superstar who thinks he is going mad inside a room at a Los Angeles hotel. The film takes us on a downward spiral into Pink’s hell. Live action is intercut with brilliant animation by Gerald Scarfe and the soundtrack by Pink Floyd has given this film its cult status.
