Tommy
"Superstar Tommy", originally a famous rock and roll drama, Ken Russell tried his best to put it on the screen. The imaging skills are very colorful, especially better than the noisy singing in the film. However, this film has little connotation, and the skills seem a bit aimless.

A rock movie comparable to The Wall
This may seem a bit overwhelming, but it's not too much.
The most brilliant part of the film is that in addition to the complete reproduction of the sound part of the musical, the starring Roger Daltrey, who is also the lead singer of The Who, performs unexpectedly and admiringly. Several other members of the band also joined the show. There are also Elton John and Eric Clapton in the cast list, but unfortunately I didn't recognize them right away. Hehe.
Also, I didn't... -

Spicy taunts, brilliant lines, interlocking symbols, a subtle and humorous anti-idol approach... Tommy is more than rock and roll, just like a cross with a rounded top that turns into a pinball machine - the world is full of A metaphor: it's not cynicism, it's real truth.
Tommy's deafness and blindness lies in the fact that he has lost himself and is completely autistic: the first half is a search process, during which various people's abuse of an unconscious child does not constitute... -

Two side stories about the album "tommy"
One of the side stories: The difference between film and music The significance of the
album "tommy" was epoch-making at the time. It allowed everyone to see a new field of rock development: grandeur, narrative, epic, etc., which seemed to belong to novels and movies before. and patents on art forms such as theatre. From this point of view, the meaning of "tommy" is revolutionary. At the same time, unfortunately, this revolutionary significance is far greater than the significance of...

The Specialist: [singing] He seems to be completely unreceptive. The tests I gave him showed no sense at all!
[pause]
The Specialist: His eyes react to light; the dials detect it. He hears but cannot answer to your call!
Tommy: [sings] See me! Feel me! Touch me! Heal me!
[sings again]
Tommy: See me! Feel me! Touch me! Heal me!
The Specialist: [singing to Tommy's mother] There is no chance, no untried operation. All hope lies with him and none with me. Imagine though the shock from isolation, when he suddenly can hear and speak and see!
Tommy: [sings again] SEE ME! FEEL ME! TOUCH ME! HEAL ME!
The Specialist: [singing] His eyes can see, his ears can hear, his lips speak. All the time the needles flick and rock. No machine can give the kind of stimulation... needed to remove his inner block!
Frank Hobbs: [Frank sings while Nora imitates him] I often wonder what he is feeling! Has he ever heard a word I've said? Look at him in the mirror dreaming! What is happening in his head?

Nora Walker Hobbs: But what's it all worth? What's it all worth when my son is blind? He can't hear the music nor enjoy what I'm buying. His life is worthless, affecting mine. I'd pay any price to drive his plight from my mind!
