	Exclusive Interview - Cameron Crowe for "Elizabethtown"
		Cameron Crowe: Well it kind of is project to project because as a writer I think you always write to some degree about things that you know or things that happened - but my favourite filmmakers, my favourite movies of theirs tend to be the personal movies.
		Cameron Crowe: It's more like can I build a group of characters and can I tell some universal truths that feel real and aren't formulaic in the spirit of filmmakers gone by who've told American stories that were personal and universal as well.
		Cameron Crowe: No, and I loved doing the book on Billy Wilder, I saw Robert Towne in the lobby when we were in Europe and I was just like dying to talk to him about Hal Ashby and some other stuff but I didn't have a tape recorder on assignment...

	SPLICEDwire \| "Almost Famous" interviews: Cameron Crowe, Kate Hudson, Patrick Fugit (2000)
		Crowe wrote and directed "Say Anything," "Singles" and "Jerry Maguire." Hudson is Goldie Hawn's daughter and has starred in "Gossip," "Desert Blue" and "200 Cigarettes." Fugit is a film newbie, prior to this film having appeared in only two episodes of "Touched By An Angel."
		This is apropos, however, since the purpose of this chaos is a press junket to promote "Almost Famous," director Cameron Crowe's semi-autobiographical cinematic memoir about his days as a teenage prodigy rock journalist in the early 1970s.
		Crowe's career began in 1973 when he was a 15-year-old self-taught cub reporter, writing with great enthusiasm about the San Diego music scene for the fanzine Creem.

	Reel.com: Cameron Crowe
		It's been nearly four years since writer/director Cameron Crowe's last movie was released into theaters and everyone, including Hollywood insiders, have been waiting with baited breath to see what this filmmaker would come up with next.
		After all, Crowe was nominated for two Academy Awards back in 1997 for Jerry Maguire, one for Best Director and another for Best Original Screenplay.
		The movie's story revolves around William Miller, played by newcomer Patrick Fugit, a precocious teenager who is afforded the wonderful opportunity to go on tour with some of 1973's biggest rock bands, documenting their exploits as a magazine and falling in love with a groupie named Penny Lane.

	The Seattle Times: Arts & Entertainment: An interview with Cameron Crowe, director of "Elizabethtown"
		Cameron Crowe, writer and director of the movie "Elizabethtown," conducts an interview along the red carpet on Main Street in Franklin, Tenn., last month.
		Crowe's father, who died in the late '80s (right after "Say Anything," Crowe says), was from Kentucky, and after his death Crowe and Wilson traveled there, to get to know the family.
		Crowe and Wilson continued their tradition of writing "fake rock songs" — begun while writing songs for Stillwater in "Almost Famous" —; in "Elizabethtown," by writing a tune for the band Ruckus, of which Drew's cousin is a member.

		Crowe followed the same route, and the one-time Rock 'n Roll fanboy shows the evolution of his own character into a student of film, and interviews the aging master with the reverence and unabashed enthusiasm he once bestowed upon the long-haired idols of his youth.
		Crowe asks interesting and original questions, obviously he has a great deal of respect for the old man. Wilder very slowly puts his guard down and begins to enjoy his sessions with the author.
		Cameron Crowe's interviews with the legendary Billy Wilder are wonderful with a direct, personal approach; Wilder reveals just how seemingly easy his masterpieces were made.

	The Austin Chronicle: Screens: A Fan's Notes: Cameron Crowe's 'Almost Famous' Goes Behind the Music
		Cameron Crowe knows what it means to admire something bone-deep, and while Almost Famous, the writer/director's follow-up to Jerry Maguire, is about coming of age, first love, and family, it is also about how the artists who inspire us need our inspiration too.
		Like William, Cameron Crowe is an observer -- a gentle and inquisitive person, able to divine a person's spirit from the words he chooses, or the ones he doesn't, or the way he holds his hand against his chin.
		Cameron Crowe is not rock star cool -- that being a kind of cheap, store-bought coolness that requires sunglasses and fur coats and fades as quickly as pop radio.

		Crowe recently took a break from editing "Elizabethtown" to give MTV News' Benjamin Wagner a call and talk about the new film, touring with rock stars and the "in-between" moments that matter most to him.
		Crowe: Well, I got lucky early on, working with John Cusack and Sean Penn and other actors who were able to make those moments real.
		Crowe: Well, that's gonna be in there because that's the song we always used when we were auditioning guys looking into the father's casket.

		In this interview with Christianity Today Movies—conducted in two parts, at a roundtable in LA and, later, over the phone—the affable and gracious Crowe talked about this love letter to Kentucky, avoiding cynicism, and what it means to create a well-lived life.
		Crowe: I think in the case of Elizabethtown, it's the story itself.
		Crowe: I hope it encourages people to be truly alive, to inhabit the world in a complete way.

	Almost Good: The Films of Cameron Crowe
		Likewise, Cameron Crowe's movies rely on sentimentalism and nostalgia; the audience's response is fueled by sugar-coated memories of the past.
		The difference between Crowe and Truffaut is that Truffaut presents both the beauty and the sadness of these people's lives, and he is relentless in revealing the price that those who make movies pay for the addiction to their profession.
		Cameron Crowe makes coming-of-age movies, but there is still something childish at the heart of them - you get the feeling that he doesn't want to dig deeper.

	Cameron Crowe, Vanilla Sky Interview
		For his latest film, Vanilla Sky, Crowe has chosen to adapt the Spanish film Open your Eyes, and at the same time created his unique perspective on pop cultural America while remaining faithful to a complex original.
		Cameron: I thought it might be interesting to get into some of the aspects of casual sex and how people kind of playact at the casual part of that.
		I liked the idea of having a scene as raw as Cameron Diaz's scene in the car with Tom where you feel you're a fly on the wall and maybe you shouldn't even be hearing some of that stuff.

		You can see the continuity between Crowe's profiles and his films in his intense identification with his subjects, which stems from his complete immersion in their worlds.
		Crowe spent 1980 posing as a high school student -- at 22 he could still pass for 18.
		Anchored by its trio of outstanding performances and Crowe's self-assured handling, Say Anything is one of the best American films of the late Eighties, enlivened by the director's great ear for dialogue, supporting characters deserving of their own movies, and profound understanding of the importance music holds in people's lives.

	Cameron Crowe's mothering instinct. - By Sarah Hepola - Slate Magazine
		On the commentary track for the director's cut of Cameron Crowe's autobiographical film Almost Famous, Crowe is joined by an unusual guest—his mother.
		Crowe's latest film is Elizabethtown, a romantic comedy about an entrepreneur (Orlando Bloom) who returns to small-town Kentucky after his father's sudden death and the biggest flop of his career.
		Now, to what extent all this idealization derives from Crowe's relationship with his mother (or his sister, or his wife, Heart's Nancy Wilson) is for the armchair therapists to decide.

	Fametracker :: The Fame Audit :: Cameron Crowe
		Cameron Crowe is good at catchphrases, at images, at memorable moments, but he's not that good at whole movies.
		What's odd about Crowe is how pervasive his influence is, or seems to be; there are so many movies that feel like they could have been directed by him (Serendipity comes to mind), mostly because lesser directors steal his actors and his tricks.
		This kind of Easy-Bake moment is exactly what Crowe's best known for, and best at: a moment that effectively cues you to feel something you remember having felt before, rather than inspiring an actual honest emotional response.

	IGN: A Conversation with Cameron Crowe
		Thankfully, there are those few occasions whereupon writers get to embrace their inner googolplex-goer, their closet fanboy, and interview someone whom they respect and enjoy on a personal level as much as a professional one.
		Such is the case for me, somewhat appropriately, with Cameron Crowe, who was himself at one time a reporter, and went on to become one of Hollywood's most respected filmmakers with works like Say Anything, Jerry Maguire and Almost Famous.
		From our first moments together, Crowe proved to be a charming, articulate fellow; not only did he appreciate my enthusiasm, as unfocused as it may have been, but he responded in kind, offering sage wisdom about moviemaking as much as life itself.

	MTV Movies \| Features and Interviews
		Screenwriter, director and music lover Cameron Crowe has built a career crafting onscreen moments that seem to organically, effortlessly meld celluloid and song.
		But while Crowe has made it look — and sound — easy in films as diverse as "Say Anything," "Almost Famous" and the upcoming Orlando Bloom-Kirsten Dunst vehicle, "Elizabethtown," the director insists that the right combination of the visual and aural is often maddeningly elusive.
		Crowe's massively successful paean to the power of love to triumph over greed, slime and toxic self-absorption, "Jerry Maguire" nabbed a Best Supporting Oscar for Cuba Gooding, Jr., spawned a million lame "Show me the money" jokes and featured one of the strongest, most nuanced performances of Tom Cruise's career.

	Rolling Stone : This Time Cameron Crowe Gets Zeppelin for Movie Soundtrack
		The hard rockers are notoriously stingy with their catalog, and wouldn't let Crowe use "When the Levee Breaks" from "Led Zeppelin IV" in his debut 1982 film Fast Times at Ridgemont High (to coincide with the dialogue where Brian Backer's character Rat declared side two of "Led Zeppelin IV" to be "the best make-out music").
		Instead of "Levee," Crowe was forced to substitute "Kashmir," from the band's Physical Graffiti, much to the consternation of Led Zep purists everywhere.
		They were so enthralled with the movie -- which actually borrows from the time Crowe spent on the road with them for a Rolling Stone story -- that they gave their OK for the use of four of their songs, including "That's the Way," which will appear on the soundtrack (out on Dreamworks Sept. 12).
