I know a lot of movies with music made by progressive bands or musicians (Popol Vuh, Goblin, Philip Glass, Wendy Carlos), but not like The Wall. I saw this film many, many times, and always enjoy it as the first  .

Not that I know... but I do find several movies quite proggy! For instance, my favorite movie, Stanley Kubrick's "A clockwork orange" or "Midnight Cowboy" with Jon Voight and Dustin Hoffman... ------------- break the circle reset my head wake the sleepwalker and i'll wake the dead |

Pink Floyd at Pompeii, does that count or do you mean strictly films with at least a semblance of a plot? ------------- Now is tomorrow afternoon |

In that case: Liztomania: Music by Rick Wakeman, performed by Roger Daltrey. Tommy: Mention again because it's performed totally by The Who, and even it's not an a to z band, the album is 90% prog. Quadrophenia: Film made in 1979, idem Tommy comment. Jesus Christ Superstar: Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice are not drom the a to z list, but I can swear J.C.S. has a lot of progressive elements. Blade Runner: Not a rock Opera, but an excellent soundtrack by Evengelio Odsiseus Papathanassiou .aka. Vangelis. Also the movie is very progressive in the same sense someone mentioned Clockwork Orange before. |

Ok, think of PINK FLOYD whenever you watch: "The Valley" - Obscured by Clouds "More" - from the "More" album and "Zabriskie Point" - most of the OST arranged and provided by Pink Floyd, including two special compositions for the same purpose by Rick Wright Regards, Land ------------- break the circle reset my head wake the sleepwalker and i'll wake the dead |

What about HEAD by The Monkeys, with a cameo from Frank Zappa. A lot trippier than the TV shows and worth a watch for psych-fans. ------------- Now is tomorrow afternoon |

There was a Dario Argento film with a prog soundtrack.Can't remember either the film or the band though (BTW I'm NOT talking about 'Inferno' which I know Keith Emerson did the score for )

I dunno if you’re trying to recall the great 70’s Italian symphonic progressive rock band GOBLIN. They actually performed several Original Sound Tracks for Argento’s movies, and those films are:
- Non Ho Sonno
- Phenomena / Creepers
- Profondo Rosso / Deep Red ( Goblin and Giorgio Glasini )
- Suspira
- Tenebre - The best of Goblin ( What a treat this double CD pack is! The first disc contains a selection of Goblin tracks from Dario Argento movies and the second, a previously unreleased rare recording of a live Goblin concert from 1979! ) ------------- break the circle reset my head wake the sleepwalker and i'll wake the dead |
