Ned Kelly
Sean JordanHOST
... an interesting American accent in Elizabeth Town.
Serra NaimanGUEST
[gasps]
Ian KarmelHOST
Yes.
Annabel SteadmanGUEST
And so that song is on the soundtrack of that film.
Annabel SteadmanGUEST
And I don't know if you're familiar with Elizabethtown.
Annabel SteadmanGUEST
It's an odd choice for a film to watch before your GCSE results come out because it's essentially a film about failure.
Annabel SteadmanGUEST
But it's honestly, it's great because it's essentially the kind of overwhelming message of it is you can fail really, really big.
Annabel SteadmanGUEST
And yeah, it's Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst.
Annabel SteadmanGUEST
And the soundtrack is absolutely phenomenal.
Annabel SteadmanGUEST
And yeah, because it's Elizabethtown, Kentucky.
Annabel SteadmanGUEST
So it's all kind of Southern music, country music.
Josh YoungHOST
I have no idea.
Josh YoungHOST
Probably based on a book called Elizabethtown, right?
Daniel BoltersteinHOST
Yeah, that's it.
Josh YoungHOST
But, you know, most things are adapted screenplays, it turns out.
Josh YoungHOST
Elizabethtown.
Josh YoungHOST
Do you think...
Josh YoungHOST
Okay, so if a Marvel movie was up for an Oscar for, like, best screenplay, would it be best adapted screenplay? No.
Connor HapperHOST
We weren't going to Wallace & Gromit.
JoeyPANELIST
Did you go to Elizabethtown because it was partially filmed in Nebraska?
Connor HapperHOST
I don't think so.
JoeyPANELIST
Uh, The Fog? The Fog seems like it could be a possibility.
Connor HapperHOST
I, I was gonna say, I absolutely don't remember ever seeing a movie called The Fog.
Connor HapperHOST
But-
JoeyPANELIST
I just got a text from someone telling me that they met Orlando Bloom when he was filming Elizabethtown in Scottsbluff.
Connor HapperHOST
[laughs]
Nathaniel JohnsonHOST
Yeah.
Sammaeal NumineHOST
Um, you know, that term didn't really come about until a few years later when I think it was when, um, after Elizabeth Town came out with, uh...
Nathaniel JohnsonHOST
Kirsten Dunst-
Sammaeal NumineHOST
Kirsten Dunst, yeah
Jamey LHOST
Oh, I like Jerry Maguire.
WinstonHOST
Elizabeth Town.
JeannetteHOST
Mm-hmm.
WinstonHOST
Um, he was a writer for, I think, Rolling Stone.
Nick DostalHOST
It was just done for me after this.
Nick DostalHOST
After this, we got Elizabethtown, We Bought a Zoo, and Aloha.
Nick DostalHOST
And I think... all three of those movies are really just not good.
Nick DostalHOST
So I don't, you know, we had Say Anything in 1989, then Singles, Jerry Maguire, Almost Famous, and Vanilla Sky.
Brandon SparksHOST
And I think I, I watched it as I got older.
Brandon SparksHOST
And being a Cameron Crowe fan, loved Almost Famous, and kinda di- dealt, kinda went deeper into his work as my high school and college years went on with, uh, Elizabethtown, with, uh, Singles, with Say Anything.
Brandon SparksHOST
And then learning more about him at Fast Times at Ridgemont High, and then some lesser-known ones as we'll talk about a little bit.
Brandon SparksHOST
Uh, but yeah.
Brandon SparksHOST
And so that was my thing.
Brandon SparksHOST
I texted you, I was saying like, yeah, I was...
Brandon SparksHOST
I re-watched Elizabethtown-
