“I am a Golden God!”
Listen to your favourite old school record with a candle burning and you will see your entire future… That’s right. For the second episode in Raphael’s masterclass theme on Frances McDormand, we’re turning the clocks back and revisiting the nostalgic, smoky, rock ‘n’ roll remembrances of Cameron Crowe’s 2000 magnum opus Almost Famous. Featuring one of Miss McDormand’s most memorable supporting turns as Elaine Miller, this coming-of-age epic is an endlessly rewatchable power ballad about musical obsession, the passage of time and the never-ending pursuit of being cool.
Join us at the back of the tour bus as we dive into some of our favourite scenes, debate the legacy of Philip Seymour Hoffman’s Lester Bangs, and share our own fantasies of life on the road. Don’t forget to like, share and subscribe – and, as always, SPOILERS AHEAD.
