Zeitschriften- und Zeitungsartikel zum 30. Geburtstag von 'The Wall' [5907]
Möglicherweise werden in den nächsten Monaten einige interessante Artikel anlässlich des 30. Geburtstages von 'The Wall' in der Presse erscheinen. Wer möchte kann in diesem Thread die Forumsleser darauf aufmerksam machen.
Ich fang mal an: In der aktuellen Ausgabe der amerikanischen Zeitschrift "Guitar World" (Ausgabe 10/2009) ist ein interessanter Artikel zum Thema erschienen.
Übrigens: Wer nicht in der Großstadt lebt und so den gut sortierten internationalen Bahnhofsbuchhandel "um die Ecke" hat, kann auf Dienstleister wie zum Beispiel "morgenheit" zurückgreifen. Das ist ein Onlineportal für für aktuelle nationale und internationale Zeitschriften verschiedenster Interessen und die senden einem fast alles per Post zu - oft ohne Versandkosten und sehr schnell.

Die neue MOJO (1/2010) ist schon am Start mit dem zweiten Teil der 'Wall'-CD und einem Bericht über die Entstehung des Films. Alan Parker und Gerald Scarfe kommen zu Wort...
Eine Leseprobe: Sir Alan Parker: Among his many cinematic achievements, multi-Oscar-nominated film-maker Sir Alan Parker redefined movie musicals via ‘Bugsy Malone‘, ‘Fame‘, ‘The Commitments‘ and ‘Evita‘. In this issue he swaps lens for quill to revisit the fraught gestation of Pink Floyd‘s ‘The Wall‘.
What with the live rats, brawling skinheads and blood-sodden star, filming PINK FLOYD’s 'THE WALL' was hairy enough without its creative triad locked in battle, “vomiting venom". Yet the result remains a landmark meld of music and cinema. Exclusively for MOJO, SIR ALAN PARKER revisits the horror; the horror...
To be honest I should never have made Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' - it was a bizarre accumulation of events that left me with the directorial responsibilities. It's not that I'm ashamed or displeased with the result. On the contrary, I'm very proud of it. But the making of the film was too miserable an exercise for me to gain any pleasure from looking back at the process. The American director Joe Losey once said. “Beware of a cozy British film set, because often, in the creative process 'niceness' can lead to disaster." The film of 'The Wall' was not cozy and niceness was in short supply hut curiously we did some extremely good and original work. Half way through filming, the chief make-up artist Pete Frampton - quite an accomplished caricaturist - pinned up a drawing of Roger Waters and Gerald Scarfe onto the studio wall at Pinewood. It depicted Roger and Gerry as two small, scowling, grubby public schoolboys in school uniform, socks at their ankles, catapults protruding from pockets and fingers disappearing up their bogeyed noses. It was labelled, “Roger the school bully and his nasty pal Inky".
It was curious for us all to observe Gerry Scarfe look at the drawing, tossing his head backwards as if snorting a nostril-full of snuff and seeing absolutely no humor whatsoever in the drawing. He had spent his life being cruel to others in his own cartoon work and probably never experienced anyone depicting him in this way Or maybe, brilliant caricaturist that Gerry is himself he probably thought the make-up man’s draftsmanship rather inferior.
First came to Pink Floyd's Album 'The Wall' as a fan. I’d been a Floyd devotee since ‘A Saucerful Of Secrets’ and over the years had played ‘The Dark Side Of The Moon’ so often it ended up scratched and unplayable in its vinyl manifestation.
And as I listened to ‘The Wall’ album it was clear that it had dramatic possibilities. The whole album had a narrative sense - although, in those days, what exactly the sense was, I can’t say that I, nor anyone else, really understood. I had been in New York when the concerts were performed at the Nassau Coliseum, and I remember reading about it in the New York Times whilst filming ‘Fame’.....
