#142: Tommy (1975, with Fred Goodman)

It's Kristen's birthday which means she picks the movie. So her and TCM author Fred Goodman (Rock on Film) sit down to discuss the 1975 Who operetta Tommy. The pair also discuss what it took for a rock star to get their own film, why Ann-Margret is the film's MVP, and Kristen continues to shill for Lisztomania.

 

You can buy Fred's book Rock on Film: The Movies That Rocked the Big Screen on Amazon.
