She's an old soul. You will find her to be one of the more mature 23-year-olds on the planet.

We used music in the film to create an environment. It made it feel like we were telling our story with a little extra -- a little extra soul.

Tom's dad also passed away when he was a young man and he had that history of feeling he never really knew him properly - so he just seemed like the best guy to work with on this one,
Cameron Crowe -
Probably having fallen in love with music and movies at a young age and then first learning about writing by kind of following the path of writers like Dave Marsh and Lester Bangs and being a rock journalist.
Cameron Crowe -
I was fortunate to work with actors who loved music too. Just seeing what it would do to their manner and their faces was great and it helped give the story a little more soul.
Cameron Crowe -
What you believe one day isn't what you believe the next day and I think every writer secretly believes that they may never be able to do write good song or script again, but they can.
Cameron Crowe -
How many times have I thought of me sitting on a bench with him and me wriggling away from whatever he wanted to talk to me about. Sometimes you say you're going to write a story about that and sometimes it just arrives, and those scenes arrive.

I just love when a movie takes a break and gives you a poetic moment, but sometimes it's good when they just happen randomly. If your actors are really comfortable and you let the camera roll, sometimes things happen and you just see something that's visually iconic, or emotionally that way.

I remember that, before John Lennon died, everyone was saying that Rolling Stone couldn't do good reporting anymore. But when he died, they wrote this amazing issue, as they should have about Lennon. They did that when Elvis died, too.

The power of music is still with me, every day. It's one of the most inspiring things available in the world.
Cameron Crowe -
I like double albums, ... And this was kind of a double album. And with double albums, sometimes you say, 'Well this is a whole lot to process.' But then you listen to it again and you start to develop favorites and it gets a character all its own. And then you think maybe you see this movie later on TV and you start to think, 'Well, you know what? I get it. That all these themes are supposed to be part of a bigger simpler theme.'

The battered idealist. It's just my favorite character ... To me, a hero is somebody who is able to accept the environment of the world, deal with the stuff that's thrown in their path ... and somehow keep their heart.
Cameron Crowe -
If you try to write something that's memorable, you'll never get it. Sometimes it's the way the actor says the words that make it memorable.

Mostly it was about the success of the shoe: Does the shoe come back? I had to look at it without that scene,
