('Almost Famous' or 'Untitled: Almost Famous the Bootleg Cut')
directed by Cameron Crowe
Sixteen-year-old avid rock fan William lands an assignment from Rolling Stone to
accompany a fledgling band from Michigan... called Stillwater on their first
tour. As he becomes more involved with the band members, he loses his
objectivity and is soon entangled in the infamous 70's rock scene.
*** Oh, what a lovely film. I was almost hugging myself while I watched it. "Almost Famous" is funny and touching in so many different ways. It's the story of a 15-year-old kid, smart and terrifyingly earnest, who through luck and pluck gets assigned by Rolling Stone magazine to do a profile of a rising rock band. The magazine has no idea he's 15. Clutching his pencil and his notebook like talismans, phoning a veteran critic for advice, he plunges into the experience that will make and shape him. It's as if Huckleberry Finn came back to life in the 1970s, and instead of taking a raft down the Mississippi, got on the bus with the band.
