Billy Crudup has that special quality. . something just makes you WANT to watch him. Almost Famous is a good example. So is this. Not an easy film to follow, but entertaining nonetheless. Crudup's character "FH" nudges the boundaries of an antagonist that you feel sympathy for. Should you? Who the hell knows?! I did at points. And when he smiles, you smile. . and when he cries, you cry. And what more could you ask for from a performance. The guy's talented. And Jack Black makes a great extended cameo. He's typically odd and funny, and he fits in the storyline perfectly. Definitely see this one.
