Tommy (Roger Daltrey) is a “deaf, dumb and blind boy” whose life’s journey goes in many different directions. From sadistic cousins to Marilyn Monroe-worshiping healers, acid queens to pinball wizards, Tommy meets a lot of characters on his way to becoming a messiah… and they come bearing songs. An unruly rock opera for the post-hippie age, Ken Russell’s adaptation of The Who’s iconic album is genuinely out of this world. Featuring an all-star cast including Oliver Reed, Ann-Margaret, and Jack Nicholson, with rockstars Elton John, Eric Clapton, Tina Turner, and more putting their own spin on classic songs, Tommy is a true time capsule. Russell’s flamboyant sensibility pairs perfectly with the album, Tommy, and his kaleidoscopic, acid-soaked visuals do not disappoint.
