ALMOST FAMOUS (2000) — 25th Anniversary Screening w/ Classic Rock pre-show @ 7:30 pm [SCREENING MOVED INDOORS DUE TO HEAT]
July 27 : 8:15 pm – 10:00 pm
“See it and it’ll stay with you as your own memories do: funny, poignant, bittersweet and irreplaceable.” – Los Angeles Times
Easily the greatest coming-of-age film of the century, writer/director Cameron Crowe’s semi-autobiographical odyssey of 15-year-old William Miller (Patrick Fugit), whose writing talent and earnest passion for rock music earns him an assignment for Rolling Stone, celebrates its 25th anniversary at Arkadin! Filled with affection for the music of the ’70s as well as skepticism about its emotionally reckless hedonism, ALMOST FAMOUS follows William as he spends time on tour with up-and-coming rockers Stillwater (featuring Billy Crudup, Jason Lee, and more) and their underage groupie Penny Lane (Kate Hudson), who guides William through the wild world of rock heroes, all-night parties, and first love. Featuring an insanely stacked cast that includes Philip Seymour Hoffman, Frances McDormand, Zooey Deschanel, Fairuza Balk, Peter Frampton, Mark Kozelek, Jann Wenner, Marc Maron(!), Jimmy Fallon(!!), and Mitch Hedberg(!!!).
This screening will be taking place under the stars,
THIS SCREENING HAS BEEN MOVED INDOORS DUE TO THE HEAT! We’ll still have some classic rock lined up starting at 7:30 pm to get you in the mood. Plus, a group sing-along of “Tiny Dancer”!
This film is screening as part of Arkadin’s POOL PARTY series, featuring movies that allow you to beat the summer heat (vicariously) by taking a dip in the cool waters of a swimming pool, even as mystery, murder and heartbreak lurk on the horizon…
