Sometimes you come across a movie, with famous actors in it, but you've never heard of it. There's usually a good reason why. A neighbour recently lent us A Love Song For Bobby Long. John Travolta's kinda weird these days*, but I like Scarlett Johansson, so I was willing to have a squiz.It was painful. I can't really remember what it was about, and I fell asleep about half way through. Some girl goes to New Orleans after her mum dies and finds some annoying derro's squatting at her mums house. Mostly I just remember ScarJo being grumpy, and Travolta being icky and cringy. Ooo I'm a troubled alcoholic genius poet troubadour. Good for you, I'm going to bed.
Also, is it just me or has New Orleans become kind of a lame movie cliche setting.. I liked it in Double Jeopardy, and in Skeleton Key. But if I see another street parade on a balmy summer night with lilting trombones playing while people in the background wear pale suits and eat gumbo, I may hurt someone.
*these days?

haha, won't watch it then! I totally agree about the New Orleans setting (though Skeleton Key was a good movie).
