Elizabethtown: the movie

Finally had the chance to see the movie Elizabethtown. The only purpose for me to see the movie was setting. Back home in Kentucky - small town atmosphere and country roads. I had the biggest desire to make a day trip to Kentucky just to drive along the back roads with brick fences and catch a glipse of horses sprinkled across the farms.

Here are my thoughts...

• Still can't stand Kirsten Dunst. Each time I see her I can't help but see a small version of her dressed up as a vampire saying "I want more." I can't get the picture out of my head.
• Orlando Bloom isn't as cute as everyone thinks. He's okay.
• I still think Susan S. is a good actress, but I don't like her choice of politics.
• My former car (green Plymouth Breeze) was not in the movie. I didn't think it would be, but I had to look. During the filming of the movie, I drove past Orlando Bloom being escorted by one big red truck with filming equipment, and a Kentucky State Trooper. On one of those back country road.
• Those back country roads are nice to trip except when you have an emergency to arrive quickly to a restroom. (Don't ask, I just know.)
• Not every Kentuckian collects pop bottle openers.
• A true Kentuckian knows the importance of Ale81. A wonderful drink. No alcohol needed. The movie would have been a flop had this drink not made a presense.
• Maker's Mark bourbon did make a presense. Not as much as one as I hoped, but this is a movie fit for the family.
• Not all of us have a thick Kentucky accent. Kirsten Dunst laid it on thick, but then her character was actually from Tennessee. Little bit more south.
• The cemetery and church scenes take place in a beautiful part of Central Kentucky. Located on a road frequently traveled by yours truely on those occassions when I had to go for a drive to clear my head. Unfortunately, you're not given the chance to see the outside of this small stone church. One of my former friends said he wanted to get married at that church. Well, he didn't. He married his wife in a big ugly church and I received broken heart. Note: I shredded the wedding invitation.

That's all for now. Thank you for the well wishes when I was sick. I'm feeling much better. Have a good day everyone.
