Elizabethtown (2005 Cameron Crowe & scr)

A thoughtful film - that's my reasoning for why it didn't do better - audiences weren't sure how to react to it. Whilst there are a lot of popular songs over it, they are well picked and actually relate to the action, and something interesting's always going on. That Neil Young we didn't know was... there isn't one.

There's actually three moments where Kirsten does the camera-click. It's our favourite performance of hers. The last things we've seen her in were The Beguiled (2017), Hidden Figures and Midnight Special (2016) and Fargo (2015).

"You don't need the jokes. I like you without the jokes."

"Most of the sex in my life was not as personal as that kiss."



That moment at the end, where they find each other, is so beautifully done (editor David Moritz).
