There are American flags on school windows, on cars, on porch swings; it is the year I bring Bob Dylan home for Thanksgiving.
A woman is bringing Bob Dylan home for Thanksgiving in the hope that he can convince her brother not to go to war in Iraq. She wants to feel a closer connection and bridge the distance between them, but that can’t happen if he’s thousands of miles away on the other side of the world.
Her mother wants to have a Thanksgiving meal without a blowup.
And Bob, well he’s not helping. He’s too busy bumming cigarettes, getting his lip busted, and obsessing over Tootsie Rolls.
