Best. Film. Ever. I must have watched it like 631047163 times.

Kate Hudson is absolutely amazing here. So is Frances McDormand. It just so happens that they each got an Oscar nomination for their role in this film ;) I also love Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Patrick Fugit, and Zooey Deschanel, and Anna Paquin... The whole cast is just incredible! The director, Cameron Crowe, received an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, I think. Quite deservedly, btw :) In case anyone's interested, the whole script, including deleted/non-filmed scenes, can be found here







The soundtrack is brilliant too. Check it out.

PS: I'm not sure whether there's already some other thread about this film, if there is, I'm sorry. Mods can delete it, or merge it, or whatever...

there's only four seasons
and this one's almost gone
these nights feel so good
but this one's almost gone

Nope, there's no thread about this movie, I'd have sworn there was one!
This film is AWESOME!!!
I bought the regular edition and then bought the "bootleg cut" (director's cut) as well but I still need to watch it.
If you haven't seen it, DO IT NOW!! (there's Kate Hudson in it! she's babe-licious!  :D) hehe, I need to watch Wayne's World again, schwiiiiing!  :lol:

This was a decent flick, I wasn't too impressed with it overall. The performances by Hudson and McDormand were very good.
