Elizabethtown......A window into my Soul

Corrie and I made our way over to the San Marcos cinemark Starplex 12 on saturday early afternoon to see the much anticipated Elizabethtown with the super sexy british actor Orlando Bloom, and the lovely blonde bombshell that is Kirsten Dunst. Being a Cameron Crowe film I had some preconcieved notions of what the movie would be like, but it blew away my expectations.

First of all the Music selections for each scene couldn't have been more perfect. The timing and placement of each song was right on, and helped us, the viewers of the film, to get an overall sense of how to feel.

It is a great story full of life, death, travel, family, laughter, tears, and Love. It has the perfect balance of genius and Irony. While it seemed very heavy and real, much like life at times, Claire the character of Kirsten Dunst provided a light, refreshing sense of peace. The relationship between Drew and Claire, was pure perfection. It wasn't planned and it didnt make sense and it couldnt have been worse timing.......but it was sweet and real and the instant , natural chemistry between the two of them couldnt help but make me smile.

It will be one to purchase for sure....for the clever lines and comedic timing alone I need to watch it about 5 more times! Go see it....it's a breath of fresh air.
