1h 39m
Directed by Cameron Crowe • 1992 • United States
Starring Bridget Fonda, Campbell Scott, Kyra Sedgwick
Six young Seattle urbanites just starting their lives—with bills to pay, budding careers, heightened social awareness, and restless hearts—share their dreams, their music, and the common courtyard between their apartments in this definitive Gen X romantic comedy. A vivid time capsule of Seattle’s burgeoning alternative-music scene set to a soundtrack of era-defining bands like Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, the Smashing Pumpkins, and Alice in Chains, SINGLES captures grunge-era youthful confusion with the warmth and sharply drawn humanity that are writer-director Cameron Crowe’s trademarks.
