Topic: Almost Famous
Is Cameron Crowe a "Golden God" or what?
Yes! "Flawless".
I remember some people ranting over their favorite scripts, and I have nothing but praise for "Almost Famous".
Nothing "almost" about this one. Great story, great dialog, funny stuff, poignant (sp?), great casting and good tunes.
Billy Cruddup is super, Kate Hudson(Goldie and Kurt's daughter) is perfect and Patrick Fugit is destined to become a great actor, 'cause he's great in this film.
I have not enjoyed a film this much in quite a while. My highest recommendations to everyone to see it.
I've got to agree with Randy! Great, sweet, coming of age story. Fine ensemble cast to breathe life into the story.
Go see it!

Kate is actually Goldie & someone else's daughter (Bill Hudson). Not that it matters, I just am obsessive about useless information.
I hated it.
Just kidding....
Best film of the year that I have seen.
Well, I liked Gladiator a lot too.
Cameron Crowe is the Led Zep of directors. Can't wait to see his next project.
