Almost Famous (2000)

Jacqueline:

Having never watched this movie upon its original release, watching this for the first time in 2010 is a bit...well, odd. Its a film based in the seemingly late 60's and has a bunch of events and run-ins reminding me a lot of my childhood in South Florida with my very Catholic parents. Enough said. Beautiful shots of the sunrising, green landscapes and of course, hot people doing drugs and one another. I am in love with the druggy-look Kate Hudson goes for. Such a stretch for her. Its a party film, entertaining and I could see why in 2000, she won a Golden Globe. We obviously didn't have a competing drug film out.

3 out of 5 stars

Theater: Larchmont, with my roomie :) - Los Angeles, CA
