Holes are predrilled in each corner for easy mounting. * ..Dated 1999. The Wall tour (in support of the album) originally ran through 1980, in Los Angeles, New York, and Earl's Court (London) (the nature of the material, and the scale of the stage production, prohibited a large-scale tour). When the movie was green-lighted, Pink Floyd performed five more shows at Earl's Court, which were filmed with the intention of being incorporated into the movie but the resulting footage was deemed unsuitable for use. Over the years, numerous suggestions have been made that this footage could be used to make a concert film, but Roger Waters, who owns all rights to the footage, has consistently squashed any attempts. * During "The Thin Ice", Pink (Bob Geldof) can be seen floating in a swimming pool. Geldof (who is infamous for his dislike of baths) couldn't swim, and instead was supported by a plastic body mould in similar manner to that used for the flying sequences in Superman (1978) (some reports claim that it's the one used in Supergirl (1984) * The shot of Mother when young Pinky is asking a girl to dance reveals the "mask" on the curtains behind her. * Jenny Wright wasn't told that Geldof would be throwing that bottle at her, so her reaction of ducking was totally spontaneous. * Scenes for the song "Hey You" were filmed, showing British police in riot gear facing off against a mob. During editing, Roger Waters and Alan Parker watched a rough cut of the film thus far. As they watched, they felt the film becoming more and more depressing, and spur of the moment decided that "Hey You" would be cut. The scene was also cut because it ran too long. Years later, Waters looked for the footage, but believed it to be lost. The scene was found in time for the production of the DVD in 1999 and used, though it was in poor condition; the color had completely faded and 'editing marks' were visible throughout the whole sequence -the audio was completely undamaged. On the DVD, Roger Waters and Alan Parker explain that most of the footage from "Hey You" still exists because it was used in various scenes throughout the rest of the movie, as do several other outtakes and deleted shots (including one of Pink in the soldiers' hospital throwing things at the walls and windows, and some animated shots from "The Wall" show). * The poetry that young Pink was caught with during "The Happiest Days of Our Lives" is a combination of the first and second verses of "Money", off Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon". Far from being "absolute rubbish", this album stayed longer on the Billboard chart than any other album: more than 700 weeks. * Director Alan Parker walked out on this project many times, probably due to an ego clash with Roger Waters. Waters was annoyed at Parker, who didn't like the way that he wanted to make it a cult film. Pink Floyd's next album "The Final Cut" contains the following lyrics (written by Waters): "Not now John, we've gotta get on with the film show: Hollywood waits at the end of the rainbow. Who cares what it's about, as long as the kids go? So not now John I've gotta get on with the show." Parker refers to this film as "the most expensive student film ever made." * The lyrics sung by Pink as he huddled in the bathroom stall later resurfaced in "Moment of Clarity" in Waters' solo album: "The Pros and Cons of Hitch-Hiking" He also uses some lines which surfaced in Pink Floyd's next album, "The Final Cut". Waters originally presented the band with the concepts for both "The Wall" and "Pros and Cons", and the band decided to do "The Wall". * "The Final Cut" was originally planned to be a soundtrack of the film. A single with "When the Tigers Broke Free" and "Bring the Boys Back Home" was released in the UK, stating that these songs were taken from the forthcoming album. * The scene in which Pink is calling his home from the United States and is very depressed to hear a man's voice, was made by actually placing a call to England through a random, unsuspecting AT&T operator. The conversation was recorded and played over the filmed sequence. * During the crowd devotion scenes there was going to be a shot of members of the audience's heads exploding as they wildly cheered, loving every minute of it. Waters decided that it could not be accomplished without making it comic. * The war movie on the television in Pink's hotel room is the classic WWII film The Dam Busters (1954)
