From Oscar winner Cameron Crowe comes "a potent blend of rock 'n' roll and classic romantic comedy." (Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune) Orlando Bloom stars as Drew Baylor, a hot-shot designer whose life becomes completely unraveled when he loses his father and his job on one fateful day. En route to Elizabethtown to visit his family, Drew meets Claire (Dunst). She's beautiful, unstoppably positive, and just the gal to guide Drew on his journey back home and to teach him what it means to live and love along the way. Set against the backdrop of an incredible soundtrack, ELIZABETHTOWN is "an amazing trip of love, loss and laughter." (Shane Tallant, WB-TV San Francisco)
"What Crowe seems to be going for are the heightened emotions that go along with major personal catastrophes, those rare times in life when everything seems to come together in one, tangled, glowing mess of meaning." -- Carina Chocano, LOS ANGELES TIMES

YOU KNOW WHAT? I don't care if I'm risking my credibility to say this: this movie was GREAT, in its own, sappy, sub-par, way. Whatever -- sometimes we all need a little fluff in our lives to cheer us up on those lonely days! And if that means that I watch Kirsten Dunst chatting on the phone all night with Orlando Bloom about obvious subjects like "love" and "death" and "music", then so be it!
