Publisher Comments:

A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE "A LOVE SONG FOR BOBBY LONG" STARRING JOHN TRAVOLTA AND SCARLETT JOHANSSON IN SPRING 2005 Fallen from grace and shunned by respectable society, Bobby Long is joyously content drowning his past with cheap hooch and bedding any woman with low standards and high tolerance. His partner, an unproductive writer aptly-named Byron Burns, is happy to join him for the long ride down. Their distant salvation is an unwritten manuscript sure to redeem their standing and pride, though both know its just a thin reason to get up and go to the bar. When their latest female companion dies in their fleabag hotel room, the duo find themselves putting up her young but futureless daughter, Hanna. Despite their dishonorable motives and aging desires, the pair cannot abide her lack of ambition and low expectations for herself. Together, they dust of their teacher's instincts and conspire to use every means necessary legal, illegal, fair and unfair to get Hanna into college. Fueled by the purest motives they can muster, the men battle the seduction of vice and give Hanna a chance in life and discover for themselves that true character doesn't drown easily.

Synopsis:

This story of two losers who try to help a young woman get into college will be a major motion picture titled "A Love Song for Bobby Long," starring John Travolta and Scarlett Johansson and set for release in spring 2005.
