_**Artsy road drama featuring Zellweger & Whitaker with songs by Bob Dylan**_ An ex-singer paraplegic hiding from life (Renée Zellweger) goes on the road with her schizophrenic pal (Forest Whitaker), traveling from Kansas to New Orleans. He wants to meet his favorite author while she needs to sing again and more. Along the way they pick up a woman looking for her lost husband (Madeline Zima). Elias Koteas and Nick Nolte play eccentric characters they meet along the way. "My Own Love Song" (2010) is a road drama in the mold of “Rain Man” (1988) mixed with elements of “A Love Song for Bobby Long” (2004). It comes across as an artsy Indie, except with a fairly big budget, a notable cast and a writer/director who had drawn Oscar attention in the past, not to mention a soundtrack that features 16 new Bob Dylan songs. If you favor those other two films you might like this one, although they’re superior. There’s enough good to make it worth checking out, like Dylan’s Folk/blues/rock/gospel/country. But I didn’t find the story very compelling. The similar "The Yellow Handkerchief" (2008) had the same budget, but is easily the best of the lot IMHO. The film runs 1 hour, 42 minutes, and was shot in Kansas and mostly Louisiana. GRADE: C
