Interesting little read about this movie.
After "Vanilla Sky" — which is mostly about one guy's head, and not my story, really — I wanted to do a real character story. I had this script I was working on that had nine characters. It was filled with things that people in movies do. It was summer 2002, and I was on the road with my wife. She plays with the band Heart, they were playing a summer tour, and she convinced me to get out of the house and see the world from the bus. I woke up one morning and looked out of the bus, and the hillsides were electric green landscapes. We were in Kentucky, where I'm from. I got off the bus, rented a car and drove around. And I started writing something new. I started writing about the family we don't know we have and the things that happen when life intercedes to take you on a surprise journey. And tragedy [the death of Orlando Bloom's character's father] that ends up being a ticket to something wilder and greater and stronger than you anticipated. And it has a lot of music in it.

It says on IMDB that he's from Palm Springs, CA. Of course, he could be one of the long lost Crowe boys from up Big Lick, KY or Flat Gap, KY or down toward Morehead.
Then again...

Good ole E-Town. Went to school at Campbellsville University for a semester , about an hour from Elizabethtown. I know Ive said it before, but I hope they show the dry bars in this movie.

I watched the trailer. Looks like it could be decent, though the subject matter hits a little too close to home for me at the moment though. Maybe by this fall my opinion will be different though.

I got to see a sneak preview of the movie last night. It's pretty good. Not in the same league as Almost Famous or Say anything, but still pretty good.
