'A love song for Bobby Long'



Young women, or maybe still a girl, named Purslane (Scarlet Johansson) received an information about her mother’s death. She decided to go on her funeral to New Orlean.

When she arrived to the town she found out that in her mother’s house there were living two men. She wanted to move into this special house too. The only problem is that those men didn’t even think about leaving that place. So Purslane moved into the house and started to live with them. At the beginnig it was wery difficult. The girl couldn’t communicate with her roommates, because she thought that their only goal was drinknig. The truth was that men’s lives weren’t so simple as you could think at first. The older of them, Bobby (John Travolta), had been an English teacher some time ago and the second one, Lawson (Gabriel Macht), had been his helper. Their lives were really hard, but you could find out why by watching the movie.

So, those three people were living together and after some time they started to understand and to help each other. They found out some secrets from the past and learned a lot of things about themselves.

This in one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. It’s different from the typical Amercian films. “A love song for Bobby Long” makes you wonder about some important parts of live.
