Thanks for your patience as the site has undergone significant downtime over the past few months. Keep your eyes peeled for additional content to be added over the coming months as we get closer to the Elizabethtown release on July 29th!
Elizabethtown – New Journal Entries
Comments Off
Cameron’s September and October journals have been added. Look for additional journal entries very soon!
September 1, 2004
John Wayne Airport, Orange County. Haven’t been here since we filmed Jerry and Dorothy swinging Ray in “Jerry Maguire.” It’s a good luck place, and the site for our long airport scene with the Baylor family. We’re shooting nights, and everybody is a little wobbly as we finish about five in the morning. I like airports, maybe that’s why they pop up in my movies so much. Sometimes I’ll sit in an airport when I’m not even traveling, just to people watch, and imagine the lives going by, most of them people at some sort of an important juncture in their lives. The John Wayne airport hasn’t allowed filming since 9/11, so it’s a big deal that we’re here. It’s also only available to us for one day, so we need to stay on schedule. We do, ending with a crane shot done at five in the morning.

E-Town Begins to Bloom
Comments Off
Premiere puts the focus on the Elizabethtown in their new February issue. I have scanned the two pictures you see (including the first known still from the film). There’s also a brief Q & A with Orlando Bloom and Premiere‘s take on the film.
Q&A: Orlando Bloom:
You went straight from playing a holy warrior (in Kingdom of Heaven) to being a seeker after emotional truth in Cameron Crowe’s Elizabethtown.
It was my first time doing an American accent. I had a great coach, but I was caught by how draining it was to stay on it the whole time. Also, culturally I think we’re very different. Thankfully, I was in the best hands possible for that, because Cameron has his finger on the pulse of America.
What sticks with you from songs he played on a boombox during scenes?

Elizabethtown Release Date
Comments Off
It looks like Elizabethtown will open in the U.S. on July 29th, 2005! Let the anticipation begin. It’s good to see a Cameron film getting released in the heat of summer. It’s technically the first Crowe film to be released in the summer (not counting Fast Times).

We’re Back!
Comments Off
With the Official Cameron Crowe site in limbo (for now), there is too much going on and I had to share! The site is back. Not sure for how long, but please tell your friends and neighbors who are looking for their Cameron fix. Look for multiple updates each and every week.
