A Love Song for Bobby Long

A Love Song for Bobby Long2004

A misfit drama in the grand Southern (by way of Hollywood) tradition, A Love Song for Bobby Long takes its cue from Carson McCullers's The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter. Re-establishing his indie-cred, John Travolta adds Bobby Long to his gallery of colo… more »



Bobby Long:
Lawson is not in love with you.

Georgianna:
Bobby, I don't think thats any of your damn business.

Bobby Long:
I've seen him with a woman that he can't get enough of. A woman that's crawled into every molecule of his being. That consumed his every thought and turned him into a creature of devotion and obsession. I have the scars of that love on my face, have ya told her about that? Have you told her about the difference between true love and a warm bed to pass the time away?

Lawson Pines:
Oh cool it man. Don't go after her, I never said I was going anywhere.

Bobby Long:
I only speak the truth. The woman deserves to know the truth. And you, you're free to do as you please.

Lawson Pines:
Am I, really? Finally free huh?

Bobby Long:
I wanna say something on this occasion where I celebrate my love and frienships with one another. Friend, my enemy, I call you out. You, you, you there with a bad thorn in your side. You there, my friend, with a winning air. Who pawned the lie on me when he looked brassly at my shyest secret. With my whole heart under your hammer. That though I loved him for his faults as much as for his good. My friend were an enemy upon stilts with his head in a cunning cloud.

Lawson Pines:
Bravo, man. Now why dont you come out and f***ing say what you really mean. Does every word out of your mouth have to be in character? Or is that the idea? Just to be anyone but who you really are. You want to tell me that your disappointed in me? Cause maybe im disappointed in you. You know I never asked to write your damn book. Your redemption and my penance, right? Havent I paid? Nine f***ing years. I'm sorry. I am sorry all right. I am so f***ing sorry.

Bobby Long:
It's Dylan Thomas. That's an easy one.
