'Elizabethtown' gives a little back to Kentucky

Hollywood hype, for a good cause: Film companies seem to think they can extend the life- span of their products by releasing the movie, the soundtrack, the DVD and, finally, the secondary soundtrack, filled with all those tunes you heard in the movie and immediately forgot. (Think 8 Mile. Think O Brother, Where Art Thou?) Elizabethtown -- Cameron Crowe's locally filmed Kirsten Dunst/Orlando Bloom love story -- is tweaking the system. The film's secondary soundtrack, Songs From the Brown Hotel, is already available at CD Central and EarX-Tacy in Louisville. The EP includes Kentucky-centric songs like Bill Monroe's Blue Moon of Kentucky and a tune by Louisville's My Morning Jacket. Only 5,000 CDs were made, and $1 from each sale will be donated to The Center for Women and Families in Louisville. (EarX-Tacy also will match the donation.) Elizabethtown's trailer makes the film look like a Middle-American Garden State, but this is an original idea we can stick by.

He made it to the ocean, had a smoke in a tree.
The wind rose up set him down on his knee.
A wave came crashing like a fist to the jaw.
Deliver him wings,
