A semi-autobiographical tale based on writer/director Cameron Crowe’s experiences as an adolescent rock journalist for Rolling Stone, writing articles on tour with bands such as The Allman Brothers, Led Zeppelin and Lynyrd Skynyrd. In 1973, 15-year-old William Miller is given a $35 assignment by established rock journalist Lester Bangs (Philip Seymour Hoffman) to review a Black Sabbath concert. Once there, he befriends the support act Stillwater and ends up going on the road with the band. A heart-warming and exceptionally well-crafted coming of age tale that lovingly draws you into the era and the many characters who populate it. Screening on 35mm.
