This autobiographical story of Cameron Crowe as a 15 year old rock journalist touring with an upstart rock band 'Stillwater' in the 70s is a classic. Crowe as a director is brilliant. Kate Hudson as a 'Band Aid' is charming to the point to of disbelief. Frances McDermond as the skeptical mother of the 15 year old is excellent. The soundtrack is wonderful too.
This is a much better film than Mr. Crowe's earlier Jerry Mcguire. Mr. Crowe works with a comparatively unknown cast and deals with the cultural phenomenon of rock and roll critically and amiably.
This is not only a must see, it actually belongs in the private collection of every movie lover.
