This is almost painful to watch because it depicts everything I wanted and never got from adolescence.

Better storytelling than we deserve. A variety of intermixed lives and each gets its perfect mixture of glory and sorrow. Always watchable.

A different type of coming of age story, based loosely on true events. Stillwater is perhaps the greatest fictional band of all time
