Surfing the film’s Web site, I didn’t see any stills or video that screamed “Route 66!!!” but some of the scenery in the clips suggests that part of the film takes place in Oklahoma, Texas and New Mexico.
The best part of the site for roadies is “Claire’s America,” which is the character portrayed by Kirsten Dunst. It’s a bit hokey and precious at times, but the road-trip aesthetic is on-target. I saw references to La Posada in Santa Fe, the Wigwam Motel in Cave City, Ky., and fresh cinnamon rolls in Tulsa.
I may have to go see this movie.
