The latest cinema release from Martin Scorcese is a thriller called "The Departed", which features some real Hollywood heavyweights in the excellent cast. Of interest to Floyd fans is a sequence in the movie with Comfortably Numb - the version performed by Van Morrison at Roger Waters 1990 Berlin concert. Reason for this version? Possibly due to most of the characters being Irish American, and other Irish songs feature in the soundtrack. And it IS a good track, as well!

Our thanks to all who wrote with this info!
