There's more going on in Elizabethtown than I realized when I watched it over and over as a teenager. In some ways, it's a farewell to the '90s (yes, in '06), and a warning of the future. When Baylor's cousin's kid is led away from the grave with the helmet on, I thought of the world during the Great Recession that would come just a couple years later. Seemed like nothing was the same in America afterwards. I hope that one day soon, people will be reminded of why ours is the greatest country on Earth. Elizabethtown is like a time capsule of a time before optimism was beat out of us, before we were conditioned to be cynical and spiteful.
I love this movie, and I understand the nostalgia of your comment but take a moment to consider this... Susan Sarandon’s line at the memorial captures the heart of the movie; “It takes time to be funny, it takes time to extract joy from life.” Despite modern trends, it’s up to every individual how they spend their time! Claire’s line, “...have the courage to fail big, and make them wonder while you’re still smiling...” encourages everyone to dismiss the masses and lean into their power. Nothing has gone away but what we let go away through our focus! The masses don’t matter. Best!
