Elizabethtown is Cameron Crowe's warm and funny tribute to his late father, with an all-star cast featuring Orlando Bloom, Kirsten Dunst, Susan Sarandon and Alec Baldwin. Based on his own fond memories, this heart-felt film is the tale of a young man who returns from the depths of despair and anguish to find hope and love in unexpected places.

Drew Baylor is a hotshot running-shoe inventor but his latest idea has cost his boss an astronomical sum of money. Now a laughing-stock, Drew is planning drastic measures to escape disgrace until he discovers his father has died and he must attend the funeral of this man he barely knew. On an empty flight to Elizabethtown, Kentucky, he meets Claire, a positive, intelligent, loving flight attendant. Catalysed by her and the love and warmth of his father's oddball extended family and friends; he rediscovers himself and his confidence and his passion for life.

Returning to his romantic comedy roots after ":Vanilla Sky", Crowe throws a friendly party with "Elizabethtown", laying on colourful characters, witty banter and a constant stream of vintage tunes. -Variety
