At the end of September 2003 we reported on a new Italian film, "Buongiorno, Notte" ("Good Morning, Night"), directed by Marco Bellocchio, which has a soundtrack which almost exclusively consists of the Pink Floyd album "Wish You Were Here". The director said that he used their music "to symbolise the desperation and rebellion of those years".

The film has won a few awards in various festivals, and is getting its release on Region 2 DVD on Wednesday, February 11th, in Italy. The DVD, which features Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS soundtracks, also includes a look behind the scenes, trailers, interviews and a photo gallery. As yet, there is no sign of an international release of this title.
