Conversations with Wilder was recently released in France. Here’s the cover.
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?
Did you know that Joni Mitchell’s new album Dreamland (a career spanning greatest hits hand picked by Joni) includes liner notes by Cameron? Check em out here.
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).
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.
An exclusive, vinyl-only release of Nancy Wilson’s score to Vanilla Sky will be available in the Fall. The total pressing will be limited to one-thousand copies, nine-hundred on black vinyl (available to anyone) and one-hundred copies pressed on colored vinyl, hand-numbered, and signed by Nancy Wilson herself (available on a first-come basis to Hi-Fi members only)!
The score for Almost Famous is in the works, and will hopefully be available sometime next year.
I pleased to announce the official Cameron Crowe site launches today. Cameron will be actively involved with the site including an online journal, behind the scenes peeks on E-Town, a “Hi Fi” members fan club with exclusive content/merchandise and much more
The cast and crew have been very busy filming in Louisville and Elizabethtown. Here’s various pictures that have surfaced on the Internet or been sent directly to me by site readers. Thanks to everyone who has shared these.
