Summary: A truely fantastic film from a truely awsome Who album! The film depicts 1964, when the two rival youth movements were very much present. On one side you had the traditional Rockers with their big bikes & leathers & on the other, the new kid on the block - The Mod (Modernist). 1964 was a fantastic time in England with London being a mecca for all things Mod. Quadrophenia takes us on a 60's trip through London & the south coast resort of Brighton. It tells the story of Jimmy (The Mod)& his aspirations for all thing Mod, only to conclude that things ain't all they suppose to be. A great cast is brought together under the watchful eye of Franc Roddam. All works well on this movie, the young cast, the director & lets not forget the thumping sounds of the Who with a nice blend of 60's sounds to back the picture up. It's quality at it's best. It's English & it was made at a time when the British film industry was truely suffering, (as it still does). We do pride ourselves on our films & Quadrophenia does us more than Proud - with a capitol 'P' .
