E镇里演了一个小角色的女演员谈这部片子、CC导演和Orlando：http://romanticmovies.about.com/od/elizabethtown/a/elizabeth110704.htm
According to actress Allison Munn (TV's "What I Like About You") who plays a hotel concierge in "Elizabethtown," just the opportunity to work on a film with Cameron Crowe was reason enough to sign on to the project. And playing a girl who falls in love with hunky Orlando Bloom's character isn't exactly a role that's hard to get into, either.
INTERVIEW WITH ALLISON MUNN:
Have you finished work on Cameron Crowe's "Elizabethtown?"
Yes.
I was lucky enough to get to do “Elizabethtown.” Cameron Crowe is one of my heroes. I mean, an absolute hero of mine, and to work with him was just so exciting for me. And let’s not diminish the fact that my scenes are with Orlando Bloom, who is just so beautiful and so talented.
So you have a role thousands of women would love to play?
Oh yeah. Well, I didn’t have the exact scenes every women wants. In fact, my character was in love with him but he doesn’t like me back. I’m just a hotel concierge who is just in love with him, and he has other things going on – unfortunately.
What was the atmosphere like on Cameron Crowe’s set?
I have to tell you, in between scenes on the set he plays music. He’s a guy who just hooks up songs to prepare you for the next scene. Amazing! What a great way to get actors into the characters. And another thing he does is from the minute you walk onto the set, he’s a fan of you. He tells you what he loved from your audition. He tells you how great you are. I don’t know if it’s a trick, but what it ends up doing is it fills you with so much confidence that you go in there and you give the best performance that you could possibly give because he has made you so confident. It’s amazing. He really is an artist. I love him.
Can you share what it was he said about your audition?
He actually just pointed out what he liked. My character is very specific. She’s a very, very Southern sort of character. I’m like, “Yes, sir. Yeah, yeah.” So he was telling me he loved my undercurrent of “Uh-hum, yeah, I like that, yeah, okay, okay.” He brought that up. He’s like, “That was just so cool.” I was like, “Oh my God, Cameron Crowe thinks I’m cool!” That’s awesome.
Was this a tough character for you to find?
No. I’m from South Carolina and it’s everyone I grew up with.
And how was working with Orlando Bloom?
He’s great. He’s very focused. He’s such an intense, focused actor, and he talks very quietly when he looks in your eyes. He’s just very serious and intense. But when they called “Cut,” it’s not like he’s playing around and goofing off, but he’s able to step out of the character immediately and be like, “Okay, so, we’re talking about nutritionists in LA…” He’ll go back to the conversation we were having before the director yelled “Action,” which I love in an actor.
I have to say it makes it a little bit easier, if it’s for long days on the set, to be able to break out of that character for a little bit and just relax, rather than staying in such an intense place. Although I do have to say that the scenes we were in together were not super [serious]. I don’t know how he would work if he was dealing with the death of his father in those scenes. In my scenes, it was a little big lighter so I think he was able to step out of the character, which I really love.
Was it the script or the fact that it was a Cameron Crowe movie that hooked you?
Both. Seriously. But I have to say if the script had been, “A guy walks into a bar, gets shot, the end.” If it was Cameron Crowe attached to it, I absolutely would have done it. At the end of the day, it’s always going to be about Cameron Crowe.
