Back Of Box Description:

 It is now over 25 years since the launch of The Wall, Pink Floyd's magnum opus.
 Conceived by Roger Waters as an ambitious double album, a spectacular live show and a ground breaking feature film. The Wall has gone on to achieve Iconic status In the history of popular music. It has been both lavished with praise and subjected to the most hostile criticism Imaginable. Using the actual words of the band and the critics then and now, this is the independent critical review of a milestone in popular culture, which strips away the prejudices to produce  the ultimate retrospective on one of the most important popular works of the twentieth century.
 The book is a detailed analysis of the creation of the work and its critical reception drawing extensively on the views of the members of Pink Floyd themselves and featuring a 1979 track-by-track review of the album by Roger Waters

Bonus features include new interpretations of the music from The Wall by Mostly Autumn and Cirrus Minor, plus stunning new abstract animations by David Rogers.

My Notes:

This has had a few Single DVD releases Here and Here which just contained DVD 1 (the critical review) and lacked the "pink floyd in their own words" disc and the great little book. So i would try to get this version rather than the other two releases.

(Need better scans and box art info)


Web Description:


Critically and commercially, 1979's double LP The Wall represents Pink Floyd's last esteemed effort. Largely the brainchild of Floyd demigod Roger Waters, this ambitious rock opera concerns itself with the emotional walls that individuals build around themselves to guard against vulnerability, a theme illustrated by the sad life of the opera's central character, a musician called Pink. The effort went multi-platinum, scored a huge transatlantic single for the band ("Another Brick in the Wall,") and led to a notorious stage show and an Alan Parker-directed feature, Pink Floyd: The Wall, in 1982. The documentary Rock Milestones: Pink Floyd - The Wall provides a detailed critical examination of the now-legendary original album, from the inside out. It features interviews and reminiscences with former band members and rock critics, and performances of Wall songs by the band Mostly Autumn, including the numbers "Comfortably Numb," "In the Flesh," "Don't Leave Me Now," "Mother," and "Another Brick in the Wall." ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

Pink Floyd The Wall Deluxe (DVD) Edition 2005



Title: Pink Floyd The Wall (Deluxe DVD Edition)
Content Type: Movie & Extras
Release Date: 2005
Age Rating: 15
Runtime: 95mins
Media Type: DVD UK Region 2 PAL
UPC: 5099705019894

DISC ID: 0537B1D1-FD133076













Back Of Box Description:

The story of  THE WALL is told simply with the music of Pink Floyd, images and natural effects. There is no conventional dialogue to progress the narrative. Our story is about Pink, a Rock and Roll performer, who sits locked in a hotel room, somewhere in Los Angeles. Too many shows, too much dope, too much applause: a burned out case. On the TV, an all too familiar war film flickers on the screen. We shuffle time and place, reality and nightmare as we venture into Pink's painful memories, each one a "brick" in the wall he has gradually built around his feelings. Slowly he withdraws from the real world and slips further into his nightmare as he imagines himself as unfeeling demagogue, for whom all that is left is the demonstration of power over his unthinking audience, the culmination of the odious excess of his own world and the world around him. His internal self trial follows, as the witnesses of his past life, the very people who have contributed to the building of the wall, come forward and testify against him.
  
The other side of the wall - a 25 minute documentary about the making of the film
Running commentary from Roger Waters and Gerald Scarfe
Retrospective - a new 45 min documentary with interviews with Roger Waters, Gerald Scarfe, Alan Parker, Peter Biziou, Alan Marshall and James Guthrie
Original film trailer and production stills
Newly designed interactive menus
Subtitles, scene/song selection, and secret buttons
Technical sound system set up guide

My Notes:

Nice dvd for the collection, a lot of extras included. Also each menu is animated & you can have lyrics on screen along with basic subtitles to.

My Notes:

 The 12 page booklet is nice & the bonus content on the dvd is also pretty good. There is  lots of content from gallery's of set, stage and character design, also full screen animations with no sound that were projected onto the wall during the concert. Not many may realize but the keyboard player in "The Bleeding Heart Band" was Nick Glennie-Smith, he's a film composer who did the music for "Highlander 4 End Game" 
This dvd has also been released in a slide case with 2 CD's along with the dvd (see alternate packaging below for images of that set)
