Sorry to dig up an old thread but I just found out this bit of trivia finally LOL. I just think that is so cool Cameron based Russell on Glenn. I saw the movie a few years ago. Now I wanna watch again.

It's funny you bring this thread up, Disco Strangler... I was planning on watching Almost Famous tonight! I've never actually seen the movie before, so I'll have to keep that bit of trivia in mind as I watch
Gosh, I can't believe you haven't seen this! Enjoy!

I bought it months ago. I still haven't watched it!
It'll be interesting to hear some of the comments from those who are going to watch this movie for the first time. I love the movie - I may even pop it in the DVD player again soon myself when I get a couple of free hours. I loved the movie even before I learned that Russell was based on Glenn, but it was especially interesting to watch it again after reading Cameron Crowe's comments.

I absolutely loved the movie. It had such a captivating story line, and the characters were great. I wish there were more films like Almost Famous, and if there were, I'd watch them in a heartbeat! ...I definitely got the Glenn vibe from Billy Crudup's character.
I also loved this movie..and could definately get the "Glenn vibe"..hope you'll enjoy it as well.
I saw the movie when it came out, & haven't seen it in a long time. When I saw it I didn't really relate this character to Glenn, but it seemed to be a combination of several famous rockers. I was planning to watch this movie again anyway, so I will look more closely for the Glenn in the character.
I loved it and definitely got the Glenn vibe.
