Una canzone per Bobby Long (2004)
I colori forti del profondo sud statunitense, fanno da contrasto alla disperazione di tutti i giorni, che vive sul paradosso di un sogno letterario. Eliot e Frost (fra gli altri) sono la fonte di ispirazione e il nutrimento spirituale per sopravvivere al giorno che passa, e una speranza futura per chi ha ancora un'esistenza da costruire. Nella New Orleans dei giorni nostri si consumano il dramma, la solitudine, le relazioni familiari di Bobby Long, alcolizzato ex professore universitario, Lawson, aspirante scrittore fallito, e Purslane, ragazza senza sogni, incontrata a causa della morte di Lorraine, madre odiata e donna che ha segnato indelebilmente la vita di Bobby.
