What A Love Song for Bobby Long is

*The Big Easy* by way of *Letter From an Unknown Woman*. Pursued by tragedy, a young woman returns to her decaying childhood home only to discover it occupied by two boozy, literary roués. Starring an early-aughts triumvirate, with a post-*Travolta* pre-*Johansson* Scarlett Johansson.
