Sex, Drugs & Rock 'n' Roll… Nothing Changes!
Jimmy Cooper (Phil Daniels) is primed to go off the edge. The Italian scooter, bespoke suit and the other trappings of being Mod make for a subversive rebellion against his British working class surroundings. But even the pills and fleeting moments with his mates don't ease the assault of growing pains that are deepening his alienation. It only gets messier when he finally joins one of the headline making seaside clashes of 1964 between the Mods and their mortal enemies, the motorcycle-cruising, leather-clad Rockers. A reality check of his idol, the smooth Ace Face hastens Jimmy's identity crisis.
Among the most definitive films on a youth cult, this human drama adapted from and featuring The Who's seminal Quadrophenia (including the anthemic "My Generation," "The Real Me," and "Love Reign O'er Me"), bursts with all the tragic frustration and irrepressible euphoria of youth on the verge of adulthood.

Not for the Tommy crowd - 2.5 out of 5 (2/3/2004)
Didn't like this at all. Not much music, mostly other bands music being played. If you expect another Tommy you are going to be disappointed. I don't think I can sit through this thing the whole way.

a film that shaped my youth - 5 out of 5 (1/24/2002)
this film totally dominated my early years. i was 16 when i first saw this film and of course i was a mod but there is so much of what jimmy says in the film which is true about being young and being somebody and so many people who i know can also relate to this timeless classic. the music aint bad either a must film for any mod.
