    There are a few movies that I love way more then the average film, like The Godfather, The Graduate etc... but Almost Famous I think is my number one of all time. Bold statement but I think it might be so.

    yes forever.
    one of the scenes that just GETS me is in the beginning when they walk on stage, everyone takes their place.....bebe walks to the mic, nods, then picks up the mic stand in sync with the lights coming up and the crowd going WILD! it gives me chills EVERYTIME.

    because we all were gonna see it together, then 2 of our frenz went to see it on their first date. Pixxx and I were gonna go that weekend too but...we got distracted doing who knows what. And before you know it, time passed and its on dvd now! :eek: And everyone says its a great movie. However, its effected some people in ways that i do NOT care to be effected PERSONALLY.

    here's a theory for you to disregard completely... music... true music not just rock n roll... it chooses you... you know it lives in your car or alone listening to your headphones with ah vast scenic bridges and angelic choirs in your brain... you know its a place apart from the vast benign lap of america..

    This is definitely my favourite film EVER... I made my boyfriend watch it last weekend, he'd never seen it and never really heard of it but he LOVED it! My favourite is the party 'in 11 years it will be 1984, think about THAT' :D that entire party scene is maybe the best scene in ANY film ever.
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    The other day I watched the theatrical cut, directors commentary and director's cut back to back. 7 hours of Almost Famous! I have to admit, watching the commentary made me love this film even more.
