The ElizabethTown Journey.........

Last night...i watched the movie Elizabethtown starring Orlando Bloom and Kristen Dunst..... it may appear to be like one of those lovey dovey flicks...but it sure ain't............abt a year ago.....i remember writing the synopsis for this movie in my blogger..... for those u haven't read it........well too bad....

All i wanna say is tat i recommend this...to all who think that they're life SUCKS......take a VERY good look at the character Orlando plays.....Drew Baylor.....once a rising star at a leading athletic shoe company, he was being fired due to the overwhelming failure of his design for a sneaker and results in his company losin over millions of dollars and in the process the Co. suffered because of the fiasco.
(*Look out for the openin scene when Drew walks into his office...darn funnie...he kept sayin "I'm fine" like soo many times.....Alec Baldwin plays as his BOSS...so can only imagine the amount of sarcasm used on Bloom's character*)

As if that wasn't bad enough, things get even worse; Drew receives a phone call from his sis informing him that his father has passed away - and now, he must get on a plane for Elizabethtown, Kentucky, to retrieve his father's remains.
(*mind u...this is right abt when he uses a rather innovative means to commit suicide...freakin funnie....more like super nut-case!!!!!!*)

On the plane ride, Drew meets Claire, a very talkative flight attendant and unstoppably positive young lady who changes the course of his life and turns it 360 degrees ard.
(Kirsten Dunst's role....was a lil annoyin in some scenes....u'll know wat i mean when u watch it*)


Anyway...it is in Kentucky that Drew comes to learn the breadth of his father's life and his own family roots. Drew, with the help of Claire, submits to discovering the possibilities for his own destiny.
(*This is where the story coincides with the AMAZING soundtracks being played in the various scenes....it's soo perfectly matched....it's hard to really explain it and put it into words.....basically.....watch it....and know it......oh...by the way.....Susan Sarandon plays as Orlando Bloom's mum in the movie...her character...ummm...a lil neurotic....*)

It's a must watch also becoz it's directed by Cameron Crowe.....awwwsome director.....and oh!!!!! i had no freakin idea till i saw the credits tat Tom Cruise is one of the 3 producers...though i don't quite fancy him....i think this movie sld be on every1's list to watch.....worth it.....and i'm sure Cheryl will second tat.........
