 The film flashes back seven months . Tommy is a former boxer who almost made the 2000 U.S. Olympic boxing team as a middleweight . He works laying computer cable and earns money on the side as a sparring partner in a local gym . His lack of motivation has led his girlfriend Stephanie ( Christina Chambers ) to move out .

 Charles Peale recorded family births on the flyleaf of a copy of Matthew Pilkington 's Dictionary of Painters , rather than in a Bible , and after recording " Aldrovand " added the notation , " if he likes that name when he comes of age " . The father was a member of the American Philosophical Society , and in February 1796 brought his young son to a meeting , and asked the members to select another name for the child . They decided on Benjamin Franklin Peale , naming the boy after the Society 's founder , Benjamin Franklin . Society legend holds that the boy was given the name while placed in the chair of the president of the Society , which had been donated by Franklin .

 In 1975 Tommy was adapted as a film , produced by expatriate Australian entrepreneur Robert Stigwood and directed by British auteur Ken Russell . The movie version starred Daltrey as Tommy , and featured the other members of the Who , plus a supporting cast that included Ann @-@ Margret as Tommy 's mother , Oliver Reed as " the Lover " , with appearances by Elton John , Tina Turner , Eric Clapton , Arthur Brown , and Jack Nicholson . Russell insisted on having a known cast , though Townshend wanted people who could sing the material , and was particularly disappointed at not being allowed to cast Stevie Wonder as the Pinball Wizard . In several cinemas , the film supported a multi @-@ track soundtrack billed as quintaphonic sound , which placed speaker banks in the four quadrants of the house and directly behind the centre of the screen .
