Most special movie of all time. Yes itās cheesy and idealized. yes the characters are all sort of bad people. But itās very magical and special to me okay
āAlmost Famousā is a nearly flawless two and a half hours of enchanting cinema and enthralling music. Itās got a wonderful atmosphere, a fantastic 70s vibe and is one of the best and most unique coming of age films out there. Give this one a watch if you havenāt seen it yet, it might change your life :)
one of my favorite movies. at 16 years old, watching it feels nostalgic in itself, but the picture it paints of the era in which it takes place is also nostalgic. itās a more real, defined, engulfing world than any iāve ever experienced through film, and even though i know what happens, i feel the things the characters feel as they feel them. when vr allows us to live in a movie, theme park ride style, āAdventureland Summerā will be my first stop. this thing is dripping with nostalgic heartache to the tunes of the replacements and lou reed, every performance is great / super funny / heartbreaking in itās own way. as iām typing this, i think i believe this is the best film ever made? that canāt be true, probably, but idk watch it youāll love it and feel a lot.
