This sometimes forgotten work by Cameron Crowe quickly became the anthem of the Seattle scene when it was released in 1992.

"Singles," written and directed by Crowe (Almost Famous, Jerry Maguire), is an almost mockumentary look at the life of the 90s single male or female in the northwest city.

In a time when the Seattle "sound" was about to break onto national radio, and teens were about to tie flannel shirts around their waists for the next two years, five single persons living in the same apartment complex struggle to find what means the most to them in searching for a companion.

The picture is generally storyless, but follows the relationship between civil engineer Steve (Campbell Scott) and environmentalist Linda (Kyra Sedgwick) the closest. Their relationship is riddled with games to the point they almost lose someone who make he and she feel more than special.

With this in mind, the movie has plenty to say about its matters, and offers a quiet humor which Crowe has become known for. There are several small funny moments which make this work a delight.

Also in the cast is Matt Dillon as the self involved musician, Bridget Fonda as the girl who lives upstairs and falls for him without any regards to her own feelings. Both offer perfect places in this type of picture. Solid performances from both.

Cameos pop up throughout the picture from the likes of Bill Pullman, Eric Stoltz - as a mime you'll never recognize, Jeremy Piven and Tom Skerritt.

In addition, the film is littered with cameos from Seattle "sound" breakthrough musicians like Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains. There seems to be something for everyone, both genders, in "Singles," which is why it remains one of my favorites from Cameron Crowe.

If you're old enough to be a single adult and able to identify with the material, you'll love this one.
