"We cannot tear out a single page of our lives, but we can throw the whole book in the fire."
Funny, the films that work their way into your heart. Says the girl whose two favourite films are about a New York Italian restaurant and a junkie gambler/thief. I live vicariously through them.
Where A Long Song For Bobby Long will eventually find its place is yet unknown, our acquaintance is less a day old. But I feel like I've known its characters all my life. Bobby Long and Lawson Pines: a former English professor and his teaching assistant, best friends, broke and degenerate alcoholics; they remind me of Jess Mariano, or at least Jess as I wrote him. Pursalane Will: 17-year-old high school drop out, who finds her way into their lives after her mother's death. They're easy to love.
