IMDB has the final cast and crew list for Elizabethtown is here. It looks like Alec Baldwin will be playing the role of “Phil”. It’s a small but important role of Drew’s boss. It also looks like the wonderful John Toll is on board as the DP. Looks like a great film is ready to roll!
In the March 9, 1972 issue of the San Diego Door, Cameron praises the latest Yes LP, Fragile. He notes the craftsmanship of the record and (looking back now) correctly predicts that “Roundabout” will reach classic status.
The latest release from Cameron’s Vinyl Films Record label will be Sun Kil Moon’s Ghosts of the Great Highway. The album should be released later this month and will include an acoustic version of “Gentle Moon” as a bonus track. More info as I receive it.
Cameron conducts a lengthy interview with Wild Turkey frontman (and former Jethro Tull bassist) Glenn Cornick. This interview was published in The San Diego Door in late March, 1972. The band would only last for two albums before breaking up. Glenn did release two additional albums under the Wild Turkey name in 1996 and 2000.
Cameron writes in to the June 2004 issue of Empire magazine as they celebrate their 15th birthday. Here’s what Cam had to say: (Thanks Danny!)
Happy Birthday To Empire…
Fun, explosive, frisky, honest, and of course possessing of a savagely beautiful taste – come on! It’s time to give back, and hail the magazine that dares to love movies and music and the entire experience of great things that happen in the dark. Bring on the cake, let it rip, it’s your 15th Birthday!
Cameron Crowe
Another homage to Say Anything… in last week’s episode of Fox’s amazing (and extremely funny) new show, Arrested Development. (Thanks Scott!)
Judy Greer and Paul Schneider have joined the cast of Elizabethtown! Of course you know that Orlando Bloom, Kirsten Dunst, Susan Sarandon and Jessica Biel are already on board. Greer will play the daughter of Sarandon’s character, while Schneider portrays the cousin of Bloom’s character. Greer, 28, last starred opposite Jennifer Garner in 13 Going on 30 and is also in M. Night Shyamalan’s The Village opening this July. Schneider last starred opposite Zooey Deschanel in All the Real Girls.
Cameron’s official site is coming soon. I’ll be monitoring the messages boards and news over there. Come on over!
