By now I’m sure you’ve seen Jimmy Fallon’s new late night talk show. If you recall, Jimmy played Stillwater’s 2nd manager in Almost Famous, Dennis. There’s a nice interview with Jimmy and he does mention a bit about the film. Here’s the relevant quote:
“Cameron Crowe is a genius. If he asked me to deliver coffee to the set of a new movie right now, I would do it. On Almost Famous I had a beard that everyone thinks is fake, but it’s not. I was sitting next to my mother during the premiere and she kept asking me when I would be in the movie. I pointed myself out and she didn’t believe me because of the beard.”
