Untitled (2000 Cameron Crowe & scr)

The real Penny Lane is interviewed here.

The reality of the rock and roll scenes bursts off the screen.

Great scene in plane they think's going to crash.

Lovely interplay between Billy Crudup and Frances McDormand.

Connection to The Apartment does not go unnoticed.

Noah Taylor - their manager - was also in Submarine, Terry Chen is the wonderfully-named Ben Fong-Torres.

Early on we see Stolen Kisses being advertised at a cinema, and it's no idle reference as we see from the director's list of must see films.

The Robert Plant line "Does anybody remember laughter?" quoted by one of the band aids is from the 1976 film and so to be picky wouldn't have been known in the early 70s when this film is set. Or maybe that's not true. It's a least 1973 as Dark Side is out...
