Elizabethtown
Dec. 13th, 2005 11:21 pmSo, managed to go see Elizabethtown tonite.
Good movie...wandered into "Garden State" territory for a bit, but still, was good.
Cameron Crowe directed, so of course it had a good soundtrack.
Much like Garden State, there were pieces that made me go "god, this feels like my life", and other parts that made me go "Why the hell did they include THAT in the movie??"
Missed the first 10 or 15 minutes of it...damned "near" rush hour traffic...but, the movie only cost Fifty Cents to get into, so no complaints there.
A point in the movie made me miss what was one of my "goals" this year...to travel Route 66 for a ways..just to see some of the country. Have never done that...money being a major issue on that one. Still, with the pictures you saw in the "House on the Rock" post, I can't complain..as the vacation I DID get to go on was a damned good one. Still, Route 66 goes on the list of trips I'll do sometime, if I can...maybe in a year or so. If I learned anything at my former company, it was the value of taking vacations, actual vacations, while you can.
Has anyone else seen this movie? If so, we can discuss in comments. :-)
