Cameron Crowe on Neil Young's "Almost" "Almost Famous" Scene @ ~~24:30.
In 1983, Cameron Crowe (Jerry Maguire, Vanilla Sky, Almost Famous) was an ambitious young music journalist who had just released his debut film: a documentary about Tom Petty, titled “Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party.”
It aired once on MTV and was never seen again. Now, that lost documentary is arriving for the first time in cinemas. The Oscar-winning director joins Tom to discuss his first film, his early life as a rock journalist, his upcoming Joni Mitchell biopic, and how Neil Young was originally cast in “Almost Famous.”
More on Neil Young's Deleted Scene in Cameron Crowe's ‘Almost Famous’ Film, which brought great delight in memories of this iconic and essential "time capsule" film.
