Blair's Comments on Elizabethtown

I also saw Elizabethtown this weekend. Like Christina said the music was important part of the movie. Before the movie even started they had a short interview with the director Cameron Crowe about the movie and he stressed the importance of the music. This made me pay more attention to the music then I usually do. I realized how meticulous it is to choice what music goes in what scene. The movie was LONG… 2 hours. Most of the movie I am waiting for something to happen but it just keeps going. The movie takes place over a few days but seems like weeks. The most striking part of the film is the narration by Orlando Bloom. I related to him because of the emotion he had in his voice. Another thing I agree with Tina about is Kirsten Dunst’s accent. Over kill. There are movie for that like Steel Magnolias but not here. Some parts it was so over done and other it was nonexistent. Orlando Bloom I think did well with his American accent there was only a few places I heard his British accent slip out. I think that it was a very well done movie about human emotion when “life happens”.
