REVIEWS:
"Director/Producer/Writer Cameron Crowe has done the
near-impossible with this motion picture. That being: He's taken
a group of people that could have been so easily looked down upon
and intensely disliked, and instead turned this assorted band of
musicians, groupies, mothers, sisters, and rock-n-roll managers
into some of the most interesting and fun-to-watch individuals
ever to share a movie set together. Add to this mix one very
likeable 15-year-old would-be music journalist (played to
perfection by Patrick Fugit), and what you have in your midst
is a highly entertaining movie about ambition, music, a devoted
mother's love, soul-searching, friendships, and chasing dreams."
-- David Von Pein; October 2003
"In 'Almost Famous'...Mr. Crowe has devoted a whole movie to
the love of rock 'n' roll. The soul he lays open -- a sweet, forgiving
and generous one -- is his own. .... What other filmmaker is as devoted
to the nuances of decency or as fascinated by the subtle and complicated
ways people can be nice to one another? .... What Mr. Crowe has done
is...remarkable. He has made a movie about sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll
that you would be happy to take your mother to see."
-- Excerpt from The New York Times; September 13, 2000
"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."
-- Roger Ebert; September 15, 2000
