house Rock stands as the most rocking if for no other reason than the hit title track. 27. Sid and Nancy (1986) stars Gary Old- man as Sid Vicious and Chloe Webb as Nancy Spungen in the classic love story of the Sex Pistols guitarist, giving many their first up close look at the British punk rock scene. 26. Rock and Roll High School (1979) starred the always cute P.J. Soles (still play- ing a high schooler at age 30), alongside the rocking Ramones. Mindless fun. You just gotta love the Ramones, high energy two minute songs that punch you hard in the solar plexus. 25. Pink Floyd: The Wall (1982) Bob Geldof stars as a rock star driven to madness. Based on the album, The Wall. 24. Tommy (1975) Pete Townsends rock mu- sical becomes a Hollywood production star- ring the Who, Tina Turner, Eric Clapton, Elton John and many others. Highlights in- clude the Pinball Wizard and the Acid Queen. 23. Beatles Movies A Hard Day’s Night (1964) Help! (1965) Magical Mystery Tour (1967)
Yellow Submarine (1968) Let it Be (1970) The Beatles movies were to- tally original. The first two followed the young pop group abound on tour as they made silly jokes and great music. Magical Mystery Tour signaled the infusion of drugs into the band, and Yellow Submarine was a colorful ani- mated classic. Like all Beatles movies, it was more a vehicle to deliver the music than any- thing else. Their final movie, Let it Be, was a true rock movie, a documentary about the making of their final album that they had hoped would bring them closer together but instead drove them further apart. 22. The Doors (1991) This excellent biopic starred Val Kilmer as the enigmatic Jim Mor- rison and remained true to the legend. Look for an appearance by Bonnie Bramlett. 21. Woodstock (1970) The documentary film of one of history’s biggest rock festivals has it all – nudity, rain, mud, rain, Jimi Hen- drix, rain, Sha Na Na, rain. . . a classic mid- night movie. 20. Purple Rain (1984) The film that cata- pulted Prince into the stratosphere. A quasi- bio film chock full of great music and a number one soundtrack album. 19. Crazy Heart (2009) Jeff Bridges, Mag- gie Gyllenhaal and Colin Ferrell star in this
