I saw this film on an ex-rental VHS over 10 years ago and
hated it but luckily I gave the film another day in court when I grabbed it off BBC4 a few months back - finally watched it last night and enjoyed it immensely. I've always been no more than an admirer of The Who but I must check out the album that inspired the film. In the meantime, there's a Criterion Blu on the way. What with this and
Radio On, Dune and
Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels, someone might think I was a Sting fan...he does seem to get around.
