Excellent. The best movie I have ever seen about being young in the world tat rock 'n' roll sings to.

[Roddam and Trufano} make extensive use of deep focus and displayed a real expertise in directing and shooting crowded interiors like nightclubs and house parties...

It’s not really a musical as much as a rough and ready drama inspired by the story suggested in the rock opera (though the Who’s music underscores the film quite nicely), and it has aged very well over the years.

It manages to be both quintessentially British and irrefutably universal.
