slabihoud Encapsulated in 67 minutes of blown-up 16mm color film is Swinging London at its best! Everything is there: the music, the protests, the stars, the fashion, the artists. Presented in the style of the sixties, odd camera movements, psychedelic color effects and complicated montages of stock footage combined with new material. Organised in chapters, we see some interviews of then and sometimes still famous people talking about what is going on in their lives and in London particularly.Sadly the color of the film faded into brownish red mostly, every trace of blue completely gone. It is obviously the work of someone new to the medium, because he does not hesitate to try out various effects, using the music to its best advantage.I just saw the film yesterday at Vienna"s International Film Festival and Peter Whitehead was there and talked about it. Great guy!P.S. I don't understand why so many reviewers write about Pink Floyd in this film. They are there but don't play an important role. Some reviewers definitely refer to a different film.

matlock-6 Tonight Lets All... is not a flashy hollywood movie, designed for today's Attention Deficit Disorder type of filmgoers. What it is is a unique and well crafted look at London in the swinging 60's. Peter Whitehead made this film inspired by the London underground scene of 1966-67, which included such bands as Pink Floyd (who perform the great bulk of the films music), The Soft Machine, The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, and others. This is probably not the kind of thing that would be well recieved in theatres. There aren't any computer generated insects flaying people alive and being shot to bits in return, nor is there any gratuitous sexuality or repeated foul language use. As a documentary of the underground scene in 1967 London, Whitehead's film is a testament to vision, creativity, and the spirit of the day. There are film clips of Pink Floyd in the recording studio and performing at the 14 hour Technicolor Dream (a huge music and art festival) along with original guitarist, singer, songwriter Syd Barrett. If you like historical documentaries, give this one a try.

wwe3 If you in no way enjoy Pink Floyd music, then do not buy/rent/steal this video. You will not like it.However, if you really like Pink Floyd and really get into their early stuff, this video is a real find. Peter Whithead directed this as a dedication to Syd Barrett and to capture the mood of swinging London. It includes the greatest version of 'Interstellar Overdrive' ever recorded. And a song called 'Nick's Boggie' which is a very hard to find Pink Floyd track. See this film for no other reason than to hear the music and enjoy the scenery.If you like the film, another good video to get is the Pink Floyd London '66-'67 video. It is 30 minutes long and was used as a Promotional trailer for 'Tonite, Let's all Make Love in London'. The film 'More' is also an interesting film with a soundtrack by Pink Floyd, that features their earlier work.

ThePrinceofPeas It's worth a viewing, just to say you've seen it. Sadly, it's dull and they picked my least favourite floyd tune 'Interstellar' to focus on. Still, it's a time-piece and you should have a wee look at it. Regards as the madcap laughs... Drop me a line Floyd/Syd fans:
