Publisher's Synopsis

The new romantic comedy from Cameron Crowe (Jerry Maguire, Almost Famous, Vanilla Sky) transports us to Elizabethtown, Kentucky û a heck of a place to find yourself . . . After nearly causing the shoe company he works for to lose $972,000,000, designer Drew Baylor (Orlando Bloom) is fired for his mistake û and promptly dumped by his girlfriend, Ellen. Hours later, suicidally despondent, Drew learns of his father MitchÆs sudden death û and embarks on a journey that will give him a new purpose in life. Drew returns to his familyÆs small Kentucky hometown of Elizabethtown, where he is required to ensure that his fatherÆs dying wishes are fulfilled. En route he meets a vivacious flight attendant, Claire Colburn (Kirsten Dunst), who will prove to him that amazing things happen in life when you least expect them. The screenplay of Elizabethtown offers all of Cameron CroweÆs customary strengths as a writer: characters we can recognise and fall in love with, memorably thoughtful and witty lines, and, throughout, CroweÆs distinctive gift for emotionally honest and touching detail. This volume also contains a brand new introductory essay by Cameron Crowe, along with special extracts from the journal that he kept during the filmÆs production.
