Synopsis: Director Adam Collis's feature debut is, like its contemporary, ALMOST FAMOUS, a nostalgic look back at a group of 1970s rockers and hangers-on. In 1972 Los Angeles, a group of ambitious young people's lives intersect as they strive for success on the fabled Sunset Strip. Tammy, (Anna Friel)... Director Adam Collis's feature debut is, like its contemporary, ALMOST FAMOUS, a nostalgic look back at a group of 1970s rockers and hangers-on. In 1972 Los Angeles, a group of ambitious young people's lives intersect as they strive for success on the fabled Sunset Strip. Tammy, (Anna Friel) a talented fashion designer, outfits the hottest bands, while Mike, (Simon Baker) her friend and photographer, shoots their album covers, and Marty, (Adam Goldberg) acts as a manager. Tammy's penchant for guitarists leaves her juggling two lascivious rockers, Glenn (Jared Leto), a wild country visionary, and Duncan, (Tommy J. Flanagan) a Scottish Jim Morrison. On the downside of success, bitter songwriter Felix (Rory Cochrane) spirals into depression, while the earnest, destitute Zach (warmly played by Nick Stahl) hocks his beloved records in an effort to survive until his band's first gig at the legendary Whiskey A Go-Go. Shot on location at the Whiskey and landmark Canter's Deli in Los Angeles, and featuring the wailing guitar riffs of '70s-inspired rock composed (and partly performed) by the Police's Stuart Copeland, Collis's film examines the struggle of musicians to achieve fame and realize dreams.
