Why All the Fuss About *A Love Song for Bobby Long* Anyway?
Okay, let's say you've never even *heard* of this movie. Why should you even bother tracking it down? Here's the lowdown:
It stars Scarlett Johansson, for starters. Need I say more? (Okay, maybe I should). She plays Purslane, a young woman who returns to her childhood home in New Orleans after her mother's death.
And who's waiting for her? None other than John Travolta as *Bobby Long*, a boozy, intellectual ex-professor. He's squatting in the house with his protégé, Lawson (played by Gabriel Macht). Cue the drama!
It's a story about family, secrets, and finding unexpected connections in the most unlikely places. Think Southern Gothic meets coming-of-age with a healthy dose of literary references and philosophical musings.
A Little Bit of Southern Charm Can Go a Long Way
The film is beautifully shot. Think sun-drenched landscapes, crumbling porches, and the unmistakable vibe of New Orleans. It's basically a visual love letter to the South.
The performances are fantastic, too. Travolta is perfectly cast as the charismatic, if slightly disheveled, *Bobby Long*. Scarlett Johansson brings her usual effortless cool to the role of Purslane.
But beyond the actors and the scenery, the film has a certain heart. It's about flawed people trying to make sense of their lives, and that's something we can all relate to.
So, Go Forth and Find Your *Bobby Long*!
