Can you hear me? Can you feel me? The Who’s groundbreaking rock opera Tommy celebrates its 50th anniversary, and it’s time to experience it as it was meant to be — loud, larger-than-life, and electrifying on the big screen!
Directed by Ken Russell and featuring Roger Daltrey, Tina Turner, Elton John, and Jack Nicholson, this trippy, over-the-top classic is a feast for the senses. From “Pinball Wizard” to “See Me, Feel Me,” the music and visuals are pure 1970s magic.
Come celebrate five decades of rock ‘n’ roll cinema with this mind-blowing masterpiece — and remember, the sound will be turned up to eleven.
