'''''Pink Floyd the Wall''''' è un film musicale a [[tecnica mista]] girato nel [[1982]] sotto la regia di [[Alan Parker]] e basato sulla musica dell'album [[The Wall]] dei [[Pink Floyd]], pubblicato nel [[1979]]. La sceneggiatura fu scritta dal bassista e cantante del gruppo, [[Roger Waters]]. Il film è decisamente ricco di metafore e di simboli, mentre non presenta (se non in minima parte) dialoghi così da lasciare completo spazio alla musica dei [[Pink Floyd]].
Nel film è presente una sequenza animata di quindici [[minuti|minuto]], disegnata da [[Gerald Scarfe]], parte della quale rappresenta una visione da incubo della [[battaglia d'Inghilterra]] durante la [[Seconda Guerra Mondiale]] sulle note di ''[[Goodbye Blue Sky]]''.
==Plot summary==
Nel film vengono narrate, così come nell'album, la costruzione e la demolizione del muro metaforico tra il protagonista, Pink, e la società.
Floyd Pinkerton, soprannominato Pink, è una rockstar che soffre di gravi disturbi psichici'''[...]'''
[[Pink Floyd (fictional character)|Pink]], the [[protagonist]] (and [[unreliable narrator]]) of the film, is a rock star, one of several reasons behind his apparent depressive and detached emotional state. He is [[in medias res|first seen in a quiet hotel room, having trashed it]]. The opening music is not by Pink Floyd, but is the [[Vera Lynn]] recording of "[[The Little Boy that Santa Claus Forgot]]".<ref>{{Cite book

}}</ref> During the following scenes, it is revealed that Pink's father, a British soldier, was killed in action during [[World War II]] during Pink's infancy. The reference is almost certainly to the death of [[Roger Waters]]' real-life father, [[Eric Fletcher Waters]], who died in combat in Italy during [[Operation Shingle]] (the Battle of [[Anzio]]) in February 1944.
The movie then flashes back to Pink as a young [[England|English]] boy growing up in the early 1950s. Throughout his childhood, Pink [[Single-parent|longs for a father figure]] after he [[When the Tigers Broke Free|learns his father died in the war]]. At school, he is humiliated for writing poems in class. The poems that the teacher seizes from him and reads aloud are lyrics from "[[Money (Pink Floyd song)|Money]]" from ''[[Dark Side of the Moon]]''. Pink is also affected by his overprotective mother. He eventually gets married, but he and his wife grow apart and she has an affair while Pink is on tour. When Pink learns of the affair, he compensates with expensive materialistic possessions and turns to a willing [[groupie]] ([[Jenny Wright]]), whom he brings back to his hotel room only to trash it in a fit of violence, causing her to flee in terror.
Pink slowly begins to lose his mind to metaphorical "worms". He shaves off all of his body hair (an incident inspired by former bandmate [[Syd Barrett]], who appeared at a 1975 recording session of ''[[Wish You Were Here (Pink Floyd album)|Wish You Were Here]]'', having shaved his eyebrows and body hair<ref>http://www.nme.com/news/pink-floyd/23570</ref><ref>http://www.megapinkfloyd.com/band_members_syd-barrett.asp</ref>) and, while watching ''[[The Dam Busters (film)|The Dam Busters]]'' on television, morphs into his [[Neo-Nazism|neo-Nazi]] alter-ego. Pink's manager ([[Bob Hoskins]]), along with the hotel manager ([[Michael Ensign]]) and some paramedics, discover Pink and inject him with drugs to enable him to perform. The drugs cause Pink to hallucinate and he fantasises that he is a neo-Nazi [[dictator]], his concert a rally. His followers proceed to attack ethnic minorities and [[rape]] the white girlfriend of a black man. Later, Pink holds a rally in [[suburb]]an London, singing "[[Waiting for the Worms]]". The scene is inter-cut by images of animated marching hammers that [[goose-step]] across ruins.
[[Image:Geldof wall.jpg|thumb|Pink ([[Bob Geldof]]) at the neo-Nazi rally.]]
Pink screams "Stop!" and takes refuge in a bathroom stall at the concert venue, reciting poems which would later be used as lyrics on Pink Floyd's "Your Possible Pasts" from ''[[The Final Cut (album)|The Final Cut]]'' album and "5:11 AM (The Moment Of Clarity)" from Roger Waters' [[The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking]]. In an animated sequence, Pink puts himself on trial. He is depicted as a small, pink rag doll that rarely moves. The judge is a giant pair of buttocks, with two backward facing legs, an [[anus]] for a mouth and a [[scrotum]] for a chin. The lawyer is a tall, menacing, vulturelike man and the schoolmaster is an abusive, hateful [[marionette]]. After hearing from the parties and witnesses (Pink's wife and mother), the judge orders the wall to be torn down. The wall explodes and shows a [[montage]] of events from the entire film. The film concludes with three children cleaning up a pile of debris after an earlier riot, with a freeze-frame on one of the children emptying a petrol-bomb lasting until the credits. It is unknown whatever has happened to Pink, leaving the viewer to decide.
==History==
Even before the original Pink Floyd album was recorded, a film was intended to be made from it.<ref>{{cite book |last=Schaffner | first=Nicholas | title=Saucerful of Secrets | publisher=Dell Publishing | page=225}}</ref> However, the concept of the film was intended to be live footage from the album's tour, with Scarfe's animation and extra scenes. The film was going to star Waters himself. [[EMI]] did not intend to make the film, as they did not understand the concept.<ref>{{cite book |last=Schaffner | first=Nicholas | title=Saucerful of Secrets | publisher=Dell Publishing | page=244}}</ref>
Director [[Alan Parker]], a Pink Floyd fan, asked EMI whether ''The Wall'' could be [[Film adaptation|adapted to film]]. EMI suggested that Parker talk to Waters, who had asked Parker to direct the film. Parker instead suggested that he produce it and give the directing task to Scarfe and [[Michael Seresin]], a cinematographer.<ref>{{cite book |last=Schaffner | first=Nicholas | title=Saucerful of Secrets | publisher=Dell Publishing | pages=244–245}}</ref> Waters began work on the film's screenplay after studying scriptwriting books. He and Scarfe produced a special-edition book containing the screenplay and art to pitch the project to investors. While the book depicted Waters in the role of Pink, after screen tests, he was removed from the starring role;<ref>{{cite book |last=Schaffner | first=Nicholas | title=Saucerful of Secrets | publisher=Dell Publishing | pages=245–246}}</ref> he was replaced with the [[punk rock|punk]] musician [[Bob Geldof]]. In ''[[Behind the Music|Behind the Wall]]'', both Waters and Geldof later admitted to a story during casting where Geldof and his manager took a taxi to an airport, and Geldof's manager pitched the role to the singer, who continued to reject the offer and express his contempt for the project throughout the ride, unaware that the taxi driver was Waters' brother, who promptly proceeded to tell Waters about Geldof's opinion.

La stampante era progettata per essere utilizzata in congiunzione con un Macintosh; Apple non ha mai rilasciato driver per altri computer.
Since Waters was no longer in the starring role, it no longer made sense for the feature to include Pink Floyd footage, so the live film aspect was dropped.<ref>{{cite book |last=Schaffner | first=Nicholas | title=Saucerful of Secrets | publisher=Dell Publishing | page=246}}</ref> The footage culled from the five ''Wall'' concerts at [[Earl's Court]] from 13–17 June 1981 that were held specifically for filming was deemed unusable also for technical reasons as the fast [[Panavision]] lenses needed for the low light levels turned out to have insufficient resolution for the movie screen. Complex parts such as "[[Hey You (Pink Floyd song)|Hey You]]" still had not been properly shot by the end of the live shows.<ref>Pink Floyd's The Wall, page 83</ref> Parker also managed to convince Waters and Scarfe that the concert footage was too theatrical and that it would jar with the animation and stage live action. After the concert footage was dropped, Seresin left the project and Parker became the only director connected to ''The Wall''.<ref>Pink Floyd's The Wall, page 105</ref>
==Storia==
During production, Geldof suffered a cut to his hand while filming the destruction of the hotel room set as he pulls away the venetian blinds. The footage remains in the film. Also, it was discovered during the filming of the pool scenes that Geldof did not know how to swim. Interiors were shot at [[Pinewood Studios]], and it was suggested that they suspend Geldof in [[Christopher Reeve]]'s clear cast used for the ''[[Superman (film)|Superman]]'' flying sequences from storage, but his frame was too small by comparison; it was then decided to use a similar mould for [[Helen Slater]] from ''[[Supergirl (film)|Supergirl]]'', which was a more acceptable fit, and he simply lay on his back.<ref>{{cite book |last=Geldof | first=Bob | title=Is That It? | publisher=Weidenfeld & Nicolson}}</ref>
===Sviluppo della stampa laser===
==Premiere==
''The Wall'' was shown "out of competition" during the [[1982 Cannes Film Festival]].<ref>http://www.festival-cannes.com/en/archives/1982/outOfCompetition.html</ref> Critics and audiences were taken aback. Film critic [[Roger Ebert]] has championed it as "one of the great modern musicals."<ref>http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,170375,00.html</ref>
L'inizio dello sviluppo della stampa laser risale al [[1969]] ed al lavoro di [[Gary Starkweather]] alla [[Xerox]], che portò alla produzione della Xerox 9700 nel [[1977]]<ref>{{en}}{{cita web|http://www.digibarn.com/collections/printers/xerox-9700/stories.html|Personal Recollections of the Xerox 9700 Electronic Printing System|30-05-2013}}</ref>. Parallelamente, l'[[IBM]] portò avanti la ricerca nel settore, arrivando nel [[1976]] all'elaborazione del sistema IBM 3800<ref name=e>{{en}}Benji Edwards: ''[http://www.macworld.com/article/144880/2009/12/five_important_printers.htmlApple's Five Most Important Printers.]'' macworld.com, December 10, 2009.</ref>.
{{quote box|width=250px|salign=right|quote=The premiere at Cannes was amazing - the midnight screening. They took down two truckloads of audio equipment from the recording studios so it would sound better than normal. It was one of the last films to be shown in the old Palais which was pretty run down and the sound was so loud it peeled the paint of the walls. It was like snow - it all started to shower down and everyone had dandruff at the end. I remember seeing Terry Samuel there, who at the time was head of Warner Brothers, sitting next to Steven Spielberg. They were only five rows ahead of me and I'm sure I saw Steven Spielberg mouthing to him at the end when the lights came up, 'what the fuck was that?' And Samuel turned to me and then bowed respectfully.
Intorno alla metà degli [[anni 70]] anche la Canon cominciò ad investire sulla produzione di stampanti laser, avviando una partnership con la [[Hewlett-Packard]]; così, dieci anni dopo, fu prodotta la HP 2680<ref name=j>{{en}}Jim Hall,[http://www.hparchive.com/seminar_notes/HP_LaserJet_The%20Early%20History_by_Jim_Hall_110512.pdf "HP LaserJet – The Early History"]</ref>. Il primo modello desktop di stampante laser fu introdotto dalla HP nel 1983 e lanciato sul mercato al prezzo di 12800 [[$]], ma le vendite furono pochissime<ref name=j/>. Sempre nel [[1983]] la [[Canon]] mise a punto la LPB-CX, una stampante laser dotata di un [[diodo laser]] che stampava con una risoluzione di 300dpi<ref>{{en}}{{cite web|url=http://www.fixyourownprinter.com/reference/pcr/engine/1311 |title=Canon LBP-CX Engine |publisher=fixyourownprinter.com |date= |accessdate=2009-09-23}}</ref>. Nel [[1984]] la HP lanciò sul mercato la prima stampante laser commerciale basata sulla LBP-CX: la [[HP LaserJet]]<ref name=e />.

Steve Jobs vide la LPB-CX mentre trattava per delle forniture di [[floppy disk]] da 3.5" per l'[[Apple Macintosh]]. Nel frattempo [[John Warnock]] aveva lasciato la [[Xerox]] per fondare la [[Adobe (azienda)|Adobe]] e mettere in commercio una stampante laser basata sul [[PostScript]]. Jobs era al corrente del lavoro di Warnock e riuscì a trattare con lui ed ottenere la licenza d'uso del [[PostScript]] dalla [[Adobe]] per produrre una stampante laser in casa Apple. Le trattative tra Apple ed Adobe si conclusero nel [[dicembre]] [[1983]], appena un mese prima che venisse annunciata l'uscita del [[Macintosh]]. Steve Jobs alla fine fece comprare alla Apple 2.5 milioni di [[dollaro|dollari]] di azioni della [[Adobe]].

===Rilascio===
The film opened with a [[limited release]] on August 6, 1982 and entered at #28 of the US box office charts despite only playing in one theatre on its first weekend, grossing over $68,000, a rare feat even by 2010 standards. The film then spent just over a month below the top 20 while still in the top 30. The film later expanded to over 600 theaters on September 10, achieving #3 at the box office charts, below ''[[E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial|E.T.]]'' and ''[[An Officer and a Gentleman]]''. The film eventually earned $22 million dollars before closing in early 1983.
Il rilascio della LaserWriter fu annunciato all'incontro annuale degli azionisti Apple il [[23 gennaio]] [[1985]]<ref name="bart-1985">{{en}}Jim Bartimo, Michael McCarthy:[http://books.google.com/books?id=7S4EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA15 "Is Apple's LaserWriter on Target?"], ''InfoWorld'', Volume 7 Issue 6 (11 February 1985), pp. 15-18.</ref>, lo stesso giorno in cui Aldus rivelò [[PageMaker]]<ref>{{en}}''Aldus Announces Desktop Publishing System ...'' BusinessWire, January 23, 1985.</ref>.
The film received generally favorable reviews. The [[Internet Movie Database]] ranked the film with a 7.7 rating (out of over 22,000 votes). While [[Rotten Tomatoes]] ranked the film with a total of a 65% rating (out of 17 reviews), the community of the website ranked the film with a 87 percent (out of 375 reviews). In February 2010, film critic [[Roger Ebert]] added ''The Wall'' to his list of "great movies".<ref name="ebert">{{cite news| url=http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100224/REVIEWS08/100229987/1023 | work=Chicago Sun-Times | title=Pink Floyd: The Wall (1982)}}</ref> It was chosen for opening night of Ebertfest 2010.
Le vendite iniziarono nel [[marzo]] [[1985]]<ref>[http://www.macworld.co.uk/mac/news/index.cfm?newsid=24596 Macintosh Timeline]</ref> al prezzo di 6.995 [[dollaro|dollari]], molto più alto rispetto al modello della [[HP]]. Comunque, la LaserWriter aveva una peculiarità: il supporto [[AppleTalk]], che permetteva di condividere la stampante con ben sedici Mac.
Roger Waters has expressed deep reservations about the film, saying that the filming had been "a very unnerving and unpleasant experience... we all fell out in a big way." As for the film itself, he said: "I found it was so unremitting in its onslaught upon the senses, that it didn't give me, anyway, as an audience, a chance to get involved with it," although he had nothing but praise for Geldof's performance.<ref>Pink Floyd's The Wall, page 129</ref> Parker, who frequently clashed with Waters and Gerald Scarfe, described the filming as "one of the most miserable experiences of my creative life."<ref name="Pink Floyd's The Wall, page 118">Pink Floyd's The Wall, page 118</ref> David Gilmour stated (on the "[[In the Studio (radio show)|In the Studio with Redbeard]]" episodes of ''[[The Wall]]'', ''[[A Momentary Lapse of Reason]]'' and ''[[On an Island]]'') that the conflict between him and Waters started with the making of the film. Gilmour also stated on the documentary ''Behind The Wall'' (which was aired on the [[BBC]] in the [[United Kingdom|UK]] and [[VH1]] in the [[United States|US]]) that "the movie was the less successful telling of ''The Wall'' story as opposed to the album and concert versions."
==DocumentaryCaratteristiche==
A documentary was produced about the making of ''Pink Floyd The Wall'' entitled ''The Other Side of the Wall'' that includes interviews with Parker, Scarfe, and clips of Waters, originally aired on [[MTV]] in 1982. A second documentary about the film was produced in 1999 entitled ''Retrospective'' that includes interviews with Waters, Parker, Scarfe, and other members of the film's production team. Both are featured on ''The Wall'' [[DVD]] as extras.
===Hardware===
==Video release and rights issues==
PostScript is a complete [[programming language]] that has to be run in a suitable [[interpreter]] and then sent to a software rasterizer program, all inside the printer. To support this, the LaserWriter featured a [[Motorola 68000]] [[central processing unit|CPU]] running at 12 [[Megahertz|MHz]], 512 kB of workspace [[RAM]], and a 1 MB frame buffer.<ref>[http://support.apple.com/kb/sp472 "LaserWriter: Technical Specifications"], Apple</ref> At introduction, the LaserWriter had the most processing power in Apple’s product line—more than the 8 MHz Macintosh. As a result, the LaserWriter was also one of Apple's most expensive offerings.
The film was originally released on [[VHS]] and [[Laserdisc]] on the former [[Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer|MGM]]/UA Home Video (in the North America and International) and [[Thorn-EMI]] (in the United Kingdom) in 1983,<ref>Pink Floyd's The Wall, page 127</ref> and continued on with what became [[MGM Home Entertainment]] until around 2000 (it was originally not part of MGM's pre-1986 library acquired by [[Turner Entertainment]]).
===Networking===
The following year, after Turner merged with [[Time Warner]], the film was incorporated into Turner's holdings. However, since [[Sony Music Entertainment|Sony Music]] had, by that time, owned some rights to the film (along with Roger Waters' production company, Tin Blue, Ltd., and music publishing company Kimbridge Music, as well as a good chunk of the band's catalogue, including ''The Wall''), the video rights were transferred from MGM to Sony Music Video, and all current video releases are from Sony Music.{{Citation needed|date=May 2008}}
Since the cost of a LaserWriter was several times that of a [[dot-matrix]] impact printer, some means to share the printer with several Macs was desired. [[Local area network|LANs]] were complex and expensive, so Apple developed its own networking scheme, [[LocalTalk]]. Based on the [[AppleTalk]] [[protocol stack]], LocalTalk connected the LaserWriter to the Mac over an [[RS-422]] serial port. At 230.4 [[kilobit|kbit]]/[[second|s]] LocalTalk was slower than the Centronics PC parallel interface, but allowed several computers to share a single LaserWriter. PostScript enabled the LaserWriter to print complex pages containing high-resolution [[Raster graphics|bitmap graphics]], [[outline font]]s, and vector illustrations. The LaserWriter could print more complex layouts than the HP [[Laserjet]] and other non-Postscript printers. Paired with the program [[Aldus PageMaker]], the LaserWriter gave the layout editor an exact replica of the printed page. The LaserWriter offered a generally faithful proofing tool for preparing documents for quantity publication, and could print smaller quantities directly. The Mac platform quickly gained the favor of the emerging desktop-publishing industry, a market in which the Mac is still important.<ref>http://www.businessweek.com/technology/ByteOfTheApple/blog/archives/2009/04/cnbc_on_the_mac_vs_pc_fight.html</ref>
===Design===
However, [[Turner Entertainment|Turner Entertainment Co.]]/[[Warner Bros.|Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.]] remains the theatrical and television rights holder for the film.{{Citation needed|date=May 2008}}
The LaserWriter was the first major printer designed by Apple to use the new [[Snow White design language]] created by [[Frogdesign]]. It also continued a departure from the beige color that characterized the Apple and Macintosh products to that time by using the same brighter, creamy off-white color first introduced with the [[Apple IIc]] and [[Apple Scribe Printer]] 8 months earlier. In that regard it and its successors stood out among all of Apple’s Macintosh product offerings until 1987, when Apple adopted a unifying warm gray color they called Platinum across its entire product line, which was to last for over a decade.
The LaserWriter was also the first peripheral to use the [[LocalTalk]] connector and Apple’s unified round AppleTalk Connector Family, which allowed any variety of mechanical networking systems to be plugged into the ports on the computers or printers. A common solution was the 3rd party [[PhoneNet]] which used conventional telephone cables for networking.
There are various releases and re-releases.<ref>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084503/dvd</ref>

The only songs from the album not used in the film are "[[Hey You (Pink Floyd song)|Hey You]]" and "[[The Show Must Go On (Pink Floyd song)|The Show Must Go On]]". Most of the "Hey You" footage was later edited into the film and raw footage of the intact sequence was first made available on the DVD release as a deleted scene.
La prima LaserWriter prodotta ebbe un notevole successo e così la Apple decide di produrne nuovi modelli, con risoluzione maggiore ed addirittura in grado di stampare a colori.
A soundtrack album from [[Columbia Records]] was listed in the film's end credits, but only a single containing "[[When the Tigers Broke Free]]" and the rerecorded "[[Bring the Boys Back Home]]" was released. "[[When the Tigers Broke Free]]" later became a bonus track on the band's 1983 album ''[[The Final Cut (album)|The Final Cut]]'', an album Waters intended as an extension to ''The Wall''. Guitarist [[David Gilmour]], however, dismissed the album as a collection of songs that had been rejected for ''The Wall'' project, but were being recycled.
Nel [[1988]] uscirono nuovi modelli di LaserWriter:
==Notes==
* Laser Writer II SC: sviluppata per essere più economica dei precedenti modelli. Significativo infatti è l'abbandono dell'interprete [[PostScript]] per l'interprete [[QuickDraw]] che essendo di proprietà Apple non richiedeva il pagamento di licenze ;
{{Reflist|2}}
* LaserWriter II NT: il processore scelto è il [[Motorola 68030]], l'interprete [[PostScript]] passa alla versione 2 e viene incluso l'interprete PCL 4+ per facilitare l'interoperabilità con le macchine non [[Macintosh]];
* LaserWriter II NTX: dotata di un processore a 32 bit come il[[Motorola 68020]] in modo da poter elaborare più agevolmente i comandi degli interpreti [[PostScript]] e LaserJet forniti con la stampante;
* LaserWriter IIg: è dotata del più veloce processore disponibile allora ([[1991]]), dei migliori interpreti di pagina ef è il modello che supporta più RAM, 32 MByte al massimo della espansione.;
* LaserWriter IIf.
