I read on a magazine about a Jimi Henrix movie ready for the next year. So I think: a Syd Barrett movie would be a hit...!
Very interesting elements: her family, death of father, paint, chitar, LSD, early Pink Floyd, schizofrenia, come back to Cambridge, ecc.
IMO a movie with these elements would be a wonderful movie. Why nobody think about a Syd Barrett movie making?
What do you think?

It would have to be a half decent British director and be overseen by Floyd themselves I think.
As you say...look at all the mince we get from other efforts made upon what was supposed to be a true reflection of a Bands or singers musical career.
Look at what Oliver Stone did with The Doors movie.
He should have been banned from directing and had both his legs cut off for that effort...Americans really are tits at times, never let the truth get in the way of a good story eh???

Yeah i agree completely he is a fantastic actor. Would the movie be about 1964 - 1969 or his whole life?ObscuredEchoes wrote:Omygod!!
