About this ebook
IS THERE ANYBODY OUT THE WALL? is an analysis of the movie “Pink Floyd The Wall”. For this study, it is considered the film as revolving around two basic questions: “Is there anybody out there?” and “Is there anybody in there?” With the first starts this process of interpretation. And with the second ends this assay.
It is considered, in addition, that the film is a mental machine to travel back in time. It consists of four levers: the real, memories, imagination, and desire. The first allows travelling in present time. The second allows travelling in past time. The third allows travelling in possible time, potential. And the fourth allows travelling in future time.
Thanks Pink Floyd by make my life more bearable. In moments of disappointment toward the world, toward life, always I have returned to his songs. His high notes immediately have connected my nervous system with the cosmos, with the universe. Thanks for the spatial connection. For me, the screams of the vocal cords, to extend the duration of guitar notes beyond the usual, are the portal to cross the wall.

IN THE WALL
In the movie Pink Floyd The Wall
there are two basic questions:
1. Is There Anybody Out There?
2. Is There Anybody In There?
These two questions structured the content. Both songs and the images of the film are arranged to respond to those two questions.
The wall in the film symbolizes the mind. The mind, in turn, in the film, is a mental time machine. This time machine is operated with four levers, according to where musician want to go:
1. The Real
2. The memories
3. The Imagination
4. The Desire
The real lever allows travel through time present. It consists of everything that happens around the singer Pink, in his hotel before the concert.
The lever of the memories allows travel into the past time. It consists of the experiences of Pinky, the singer, when he was a child.
The lever of the imagination allows travel through potential time. It consists of all none witnessed by Pink, but re-created by him as part of his mental world.
The lever of the desire allows travel through future time. It consists of the aspirations of Pink, that is, it is everything which should happen in time to come.
About how they are expressed these two questions in the film and the four levers for mental time travel, it tries this text. But before going on, let's see some basic information about the film and the group.

Pink, the singer of a band lives from childhood a series of traumas due to the harsh upbringing. He tired of all that surrounds his profession and takes refuge in drugs as the only option to break the wall, created by him. (With summaries like these, it is promoted commercially the film).

At this point, I should point out something important. The affirmations made from here until the end of this chapter On the Wall
, they are based on the bibliography included at the end of this book.
Does anyone here remember Vera Lynn?
That is the question posed in the film when the surviving soldiers are returning from war. Pinky is at the train station. He looks for his father among those present. This question sounds strange in the context of what it had seen the spectator before and what he will see after. It seems a question unrelated. In the film, there are not the necessary references for the spectator. It is a void in the story. Perhaps the British persons of 55 years old, at the time of release of the film, know for sure why the question is done. For the other people, it is difficult. Maybe one person restless of audience, after to leave the theatre, inquiries who was Vera Lynn, then, he will know:
Vera Lynn was born with the name of Vera Margaret
