Spinal Tap: In need of a clue

Watched it when it came out, a lifetime ago.
I believe i missed the mark as it was just another rock comedy to me, nothing particular about it.

The movie became iconic.
So, just scratched the surface, didn’t i?

Same happened with The Princess Bride. I know there’s more but I didn’t get it first time.

Been wondering about this stuff for ages and i might rewatch ST soon so i could use a clue or several so i can enjoy it more.

Thanks.

Thank you very much!

Was very much into rock music in those days and feel that the other shoe never dropped.

Interesting, Nicky, that two of the iconic movies of that time were made by Rob Reiner. Politically, he's hopeless; yet the movies show real genius, and generation after generation relates to them.
