Cellar Door is the fourth album by John Vanderslice, released in 2004. The name of this album is notable, as "cellar door" is one of the most beautiful phrases in the English language, according to J.R.R. Tolkien. The album contains a few songs based on recent films. "Promising Actress" is about Mullholland Drive, and "When It Hits My Blood" narrates Requiem For A Dream.
