Summary

This is the screenplay of a film by the writer-director of Jerry Maguire, and author of Conversations with Billy Wilder. Almost Famous is the story of a 15 year-old American kid whose dream of becoming a rock 'n' roll journalist suddenly comes true, when Rolling Stone magazine sends him out on the road with the mega-successful band Stillwater. This is a coming-of-age tale with a difference, laced with sex, drugs and hard rock, enriched by the same humour Crowe brought to Jerry Maguire, and loaned a tangible authenticity by its debt to Crowe's real-life experiences as a teenage reporter who toured with the legendary Led Zeppelin.

Author Biography
