I haven't seen this since it came out, but I remember I really loved it. Cameron Crowe is pretty uneven as a writer and director, but he was telling his own story (or at least a loose adaptation of it) because he toured with the Allman Brothers Band as a writer for Rolling Stone around the same age as William in the movie. I think 16, not 15. Also, the band all thought he was a narc, apparently.
The 70s was definitely an interesting time.
