Pearl Jam 20 år

Pearl Jam Twenty

Crowe clearly knows this world well, both from his personal interactions with the band and from his years on tour buses as a Rolling Stone journalist.

...a suitable history lesson giving us, among other things, a significant look at a talent named Andrew Wood.

On the plus side, this is a must-see movie for dedicated Pearl Jam fans...

Crowe thoughtfully touches on greyer areas, from megastardom's pressures to the band's contentious place in the Seattle scene (were they grunge enough?)...

...would be invaluable as a look at this unique moment in rock history.
