Those with an interest will surely enjoy these.

Around 1974 I would venture into the specialty, cult, student, and boutique movie houses in Portland common at that time -- also most of them are gone now.

But, at what was known then as The 5th Avenue Cinema, which catered to the student body at Portland State University, a remarkably diverse selection was featured. I got to watch -- knowing nothing other than that friends had copies of Dark Side of the Moon -- Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii. Many decades later I would find the DVD, which I recommend.

A semi-adult European film, Valley Obscured By Clouds was vaguely distracting for me but had some interesting pieces from Pink Floyd.

Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii

Wow ... I have a review but had not added it to my website. Weird, because Barbet Schroeder is there, and this was a good film, although some of the vignettes it was cut with were already at least a year or two after the film was shot, and ... I don't know ... I think the record company felt that they had to connect it to DSOTM in order to give it more validity ... but the folks that became PF fans for DSOTM, WERE NEVER THE SAME ONES that loved their 70's material and the incredible number of bootlegs of their music from that time!

LIVE IN POMPEII is a better film, for me, if it is left as one of Nick's comments ... a nice home film ... which was made to look like it was more important because of the DSOTM bits and pieces ... but you got to see some bits that showcased Allan's Psychedelic Breakfast ... (any more chips and beans?) ... meaning that there was no connection to the new music at all ... the whole film is the older material and I saw them in 1972 (Hollywood Bowl) with their Quadraphonic Sound, and it was very much the same feeling of the film, with the exception of the stupid bits trying to make it more important than it needed to be.

(I kinda wished there was a different version of this without all the DSOTM material and more of the bits and pieces that they likely did not use at all ... I think it would have made a better film all around, instead of feeling its fractures! That break in Echoes was very far out !!!

And Mademoiselle Knobs ... is not on a poster ... the shame ... total shame that a DOG does not get the credit it deserved ... embarrassing moment and the dog didn't even know it!

The OP seems to forget the other Barbet Shroeder movie called More. (Or FTM, Zabriskie Point, which was not a Floyd-only soundtrack)

Indeed, those two films were not easily seen in the 80's & 90's, like other "hippie movies like The Trip, Model Shop and a few others of the ilk. It seems that only Easy Rider got +/- frequent showings (on TV), but anything to do with Flower Power was not all that welcome on the screens after the total failure of Sgt Petter's LHCB and the relatively good Miloz Forman musical  Haïr

I did "chance" upon them Shroeder movies in the late 70's rock film midnight seance (usually on Friday night) in Toronto  - where other rock movies like Rocky Horror, The Song Remains, Last Waltz, Rust Never Sleeps, Pompeii .... and a little later on The Wall.

However, I had to wait until C XXI to finaly view again More & The Valley, once my Library sustyem got a hold of the DVD (not sure those two movies were ever edited/issued in VHS)

Yup those friday rock movies midnight seances at non-downtown local theatre were absolute delights. I was fortunate enough living close enough (5 minutes walk) to the major one in Toronto.

We had made a deal with the moviehouse manager trying to keep the viewing hall +/- clean and leave the premises +/- quietly so the direct neighbours wouldn't complain - however the programmes were attracting people from relatively far away who had no such concerns.
