Hughes Rudd. I remember his monologues on the CBS Morning news. he's reporting here on TheWHO's performance at the MET, years before the film, rest his soul. the film had it's moments, but WHO fans of course, were disappointed. but the band liked Russell's work in general, knowing him as a fellow Brit. can't remember them interfering or being picky about it. at least they make a destructive appearance in it. the band's arrangements didn't need to be changed. the power is in the music. Leonard Bernstein himself, raved about the '69 LP.
I love The Who but this movie was painful to watch. Total cringe beginning to end. Ken Russel ruined what should have been a slam dunk of a movie. The script and music had already been written for him. Ugh.
Agreed. Everything comes off as a total piss take, done for an attempt at humor or just to be stupidly outrageous for no reason. The original music is amazing, the film provides not one better performance than the record.
This Was Phenomenal….. DALTREY Was Also Phenomenal 💯‼️ Sensational performance by ROGER! 💙🤍❤️⬆️

Brilliant film. It's brash, it's flash and those who hate it are talking gash.
(1st side comments by Ken Russell) same except it was *your* soundtrack
GOD SAVE THE WHO
Saw what? Good year for what? Lol
A remake would be awesome. Most of these stars are still living.
Why?
The stars are in the early 70’s by now. What would be the point?
