8 Things a Cameron Crowe Movie Always Has

Don't feel bad for the Crowe hero who doesn't get his dream girl — that guy always gets someone better: the girl he was not expecting to fall for. Maybe she's just some co-worker he never noticed (Jerry Maguire), a quirky flight attendant (Elizabethtown), or maybe she works at his, you know, zoo (We Bought a Zoo). Emma Stone's character, assigned to be a guide of sorts for Cooper's character in Aloha, is the latest, perfect example of this.
