The struggles of a disillusioned young mod to come of age in the tumultuous 1960's is portrayed with musical thunder as The Who's Quadrophenia comes to the stage in this filmed version of the live performance taken from the band's 1996-1997 U.S. concert tour. Then-unknown actor Alex Langdon steps into the lead role of troubled youth Jimmy, with PJ Proby and Billy Idol dropping in for special cameo appearances.
