Quintessential love letter to Seattle's music scene, through the filter of a Cameron Crowe rom-com. It serves as a eulogy for a few of its featured grunge music icons in this day and age, then not long for this world. Little known fact: It was Seattle favorite son Andy Wood's impromptu would-be wake at the home of Crowe and then-wife (Nancy Wilson of the band Heart) that inspired the making of the film. Even lesser-known fact: No one expected this movie to do any bit of business. Its release got held back for a while due to this supposition. When it did much better than expected, partially due to the soundtrack's popularity, TV moguls jumped at the opportunity to try to catch lightning in a bottle a second time on the small screen. Cameron Crowe would have none of it, leaving those who wished to proceed to change the show's location and a handful of other details. This included the title, which was changed from the original "Singles" to "Friends." Maybe you've heard of it.

iconic coming of age film that has timeless place in my heart and life. rich, layering of life, rites of passage. countless times, never tire of revisiting through the years. they don't make films like Cameron made any more. those that stand the test of time, transcend generations, become part of richly lived lives. so many memorable parts, lines, feelings, visuals in this movie. there was not and hasnt been a film or tv show like this. "Friends" trief to rob their opening shot, etc.

Have always loved this movie. Reminds me of a better time, when stumbling through life meant falling in love and realizing your purpose in life was never supposed to be singular. Also makes me sad since I went through that same heartache, but happiness always gets stuck in traffic.
