The Artistry and the music were excellent but the contents were disgustingly violent. It is well known that many youngsters go through a phase of "idealism" where they want equality, freedom, and independence and reject some of society's rules such as attending schools and obeying their parents. At this point such youngsters are most vulnerable and gullible towards propaganda and any other interesting theories that are available. So we get an ideal situation of the movie "The Wall" agreeing with their views. Such a situation can only be detrimental to society and also increase violence, crime and truancy among youngsters. I strongly feel that this movie should be banned. Nisha Hindocha Glendale P.S.
