There are not very many movies that you can watch more than ten times and still love as if it were the first. The joy you felt, the tears you cried, and the laughter. It all sweeps over you every time I watch it. Almost Famous was written, directed, and based on a very important part of Cameron Crowe's teenage years. It has everything you could possibly want in a movie. Even though I could review this movie and recite most of it, I am not going to. I will give nothing away to the people who have not watched this movie. I own it and I watch it once a month at least and I still gasp and tear up when William introduces Penny Lane to Russell unknowing of their history. It's absolutely beautifully written and Kate Hudson shows perfect emotion in every scene. She makes you feel like it really happened to her, not just for the movie. Her acting skills are beyond awesome and no one else could play Penny Lane like Kate Hudson did.

This is one of my many favorite parts of the movie. They are on the tour bus and Penny Lane is waving at a group of girls running. The girls excitedly wave back realizing it is the band Stillwater so she flips them off.
I could never pick just one favorite scene, that would be impossible. This is another of Penny Lane dancing alone happily by herself after a Stillwater show.
"It's all happening" One of the most used phrases in the movie and one that will be tattooed on me soon. This phrase has meant so many different things to me over the years so it means a lot to me. This is a wonderful, one of a kind movie that if you haven't watched it yet...... GO.
