Yet Another Movie
"Yet Another Movie" is the sixth track, along with "Round and Around" on Pink Floyd's 1987 album, A [Momentary Lapse of Reason]. It began as an instrumental piece to which words were later added and features soundbites from the films One-Eyed Jacks and Casablanca. It criticizes the derivative nature of Hollywood.
The song was written by David Gilmour and producer/ keyboardist Patrick Leonard. The originally released version was produced by Bob Ezrin.
