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 has gone off to a successful life in New York while her brother has remained in Philadelphia. She wants to feel a closer connection with him 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.
And Bob, well he's not helping like she thought he would. He’s too busy bumming cigarettes, getting his lip busted, and obsessing over Tootsie Rolls.
