“Dear Zachary: A Letter to His Son about His Father” is a documentary about Andrew Bagby, a man whose life was tragically cut short when he was 28. This film follows lifelong friend of Andrew’s, Kurt Kuenne, as he travels around the world to interview all of Andrew’s friends and family and gather their memories of him. Without going into too much detail, this movie gets very sad very quickly. But, it is still a fantastic documentary and definitely worth a watch. Just make sure you have a box of tissues nearby.

“Almost Famous” is Cameron Crowe’s homage to his brief time as a wannabe journalist for Rolling Stone in the 1970’s. As a fifteen year old with ambition and an unhinged love for music, William (Patrick Fugit) is given the opportunity to interview rising band, Still Water. At their show, he befriends the legendary Penny Lane (Kate Hudson) who immediately takes him under her staple-shaggy-coat-laden wing. Slightly in love and taken with the world of 1973 rock music, he follows the band on the road, itching for a story that’ll legitimize him as a writer. The adventure through “Midwest rock meccas,” soundtracked to classic, psychedelic rock music of the 70’s, is a heartwarming coming-of-age cult classic.
