Factual error: In World War 2 London, Pink is shown playing with an aeroplane model - an Avro York. The earliest available plastic model kit of this aircraft was produced in 1967. Inaccurate model aside, it begs the question of what a kid of Pink's age would be doing with a plastic model kit during World War 2 anyway.
Pink Floyd The Wall (1982)
Plot summary
Directed by: Alan Parker
Starring: Bob Hoskins, Bob Geldof, Christine Hargreaves, Eleanor David, James Laurenson
Pink Floyd (in this movie, one person) has had nothing short of a hard life. His father died seven months before his birth, in World War II, prompting the poor baby to be overprotected by his mother until his venture away from the home. This leads him to build a mental wall to isolate himself from the world and protect him from being hurt. He becomes a rock star, but totally ignores his wife. After his wife cheats on him, Pink blames her, goes crazy on a groupie, and finishes the wall. However, he learns too late that isolation is not the answer.
