how old are fans?

There's so many posts here, I can't keep up. But I think this movie--any movie--that is WELL WRITTEN and performed, transcends age. People from 6 to 60 and beyond can relate to this movie and its theme. Not only have older people gone through the same issues in their own youth -- but these same dilemmas of loneliness, confusion, helplessness, whatever -- can continue on (or resurface)into adulthood and beyond. That's why there are 3 representative characters who are all in the same quandry: the young girl, the middle-aged record collector, and the old man at the bus stop. (Those that missed that point need to rethink the movie). The theme is not just about the young girl and her own youthful problems -- it's an age old saga. That's why this movie can be understood and appreciated by the young and old alike.

I really do love this film and I'm as old as dirt!

I'm 52. Not sure what that says about me, but it's a terrific movie. You can enjoy it because you are the same age or because you've once been that age. It doesn't really matter.

I'm 38 now. I totally related to the Steve Buscemi character. When I was 28/29 I had a brief relationship with a young hipster chick that lived in my neigborhood. The only real difference was, I wasn't an old jazz/blues/bluegrass fan. I was an old burned out ex-hardcore punk/deathmetal dude.
