Empire Magazine has just published their 500 Greatest Movies of All Time, the result of “the biggest movie poll of all time. The films were chosen by readers, a panel of Hollywood insiders (including Quentin Tarantino, Sam Mendes, Mike Leigh, Guillermo Del Toro, Pedro Almodovar and Cameron Crowe), and I was somehow included in their [...]
The central conflict in Almost Famous , Cameron Crowe's cinematic paean to the passion that drives music fans to become music journalists, isn't simply whether or not the young protagonist gets his first story published in Rolling Stone . Under th...
Todd Rundgren turned sixty in June: this is the age when most men pick up gardening and consider retiring. Rundgren instead celebrates the September 30th release of a new album, which he subtly called Arena . Perhaps I invoked this sexagenarian stereotype because of its personal relevance. My ...

By Steven Zeitchik An English-language remake of a foreign film is like a certain kind of cover band -- capable of adding its own spin to the original but more likely reminding us why that original should have remained untouched....
“HuHuh! I was in the right!” “Yes, absolutely in the right!” “I certainly was in the right!” “You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!” “Yeah!” “Why does anyone do anything?” “I don’t know, I was really drunk at the time!” “I was just telling him, he couldn’t get into number 2.

In 1996, a little star-studded rom-com called ‘Jerry Maguire’ did the impossible: it became one of the go-to date flicks of the ‘90s, racked up an impressive box office tally, managed to enchant...
THE WILD LIFE was the first script Cameron Crowe wrote after the success of FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH and I may have watched it at least as much as the more famous of the two over the years when I was a kid. But, as it happens sometimes, it’s pretty much been forgotten about over the years. Even the official Cameron Crowe website seems to have next to nothing about it. It’s actually not that bad...
Whether Heart can make vital new music in 2009 remains to be seen (the band plays Friday at Tinley Park's First Midwest Bank Amphitheatre with Journey and Cheap Trick), but Wilson already is a soundtrack veteran who also happens to be married to filmmaker Cameron Crowe, so she should be capable of writing something with “more of a cinematic feel to it,” as she described it.
Reviewed by Clark Douglas Quote: "Maybe Cameron Crowe's screenplay lays on the life lessons a little thick at times, but you have to give credit to a movie that produces no less than three iconic movie lines: 'Show me the money!,' 'Help me help you,' and 'You had me at hello.' These lines have all become tired punch lines at this point, but watching the film again reminded me of why they actually...
A commenter named Mar made an excellent point in a comment to my previous post “Be Prepared.” My response: Excellent point, Mar! You’re absolutely right. Recall the scene in Cameron Crowe’s movie Jerry Maguire in which Maguire (played by Tom Cruise) is fired while at lunch in a restaurant. He races back to his office to [...]
Heart has started to plan for its next project, which guitarist Nancy Wilson says will be "a concept album." But Wilson doesn't want to reveal too many specifics about it yet.
I passed on John McCain's speech because Almost Famous was on one of the HBOs and I haven't seen it in a long time. It's one of my favorite movies, and this scene alone is one of the reasons why...
It’s true, celebs abounded in Denver. You can’t walk within shouting distance of the Pepsi Center here without sighting Ben Affleck, Eva Longoria, Stephen Spielberg or Melissa Etheridge. After Hillary Clinton’s speech Tuesday, reporters lurched after passed canapés poolside at a posh Denver home where Sean Penn and directors J.J. Abrams and Cameron Crowe filled out a [...]
