My Own Love Song

My Own Love Song is a 2010 road movie directed and written by Olivier Dahan and starring Renée Zellweger, Forest Whitaker, Madeline Zima and Nick Nolte.

In Marysville, Kansas, a paralyzed former singer, Jane, argues with her stuttering friend Joey about his belief that he can talk to the invisible world.

One day, during her physiotherapy treatment, he messes up her house while searching for a book about angels that he has lent her.

He finds a letter from her young son inviting her to his communion in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, where he lives with his adoptive family.

Joey begs Jane to go to New Orleans, where an author writing about angels is holding a conference.

They board a coach and while Jane sleeps, Joey meets Billie by helping her find her wedding ring on the floor.

At night, the three hear music and meet Caldwell, an old musician with whom they share some cake enhanced with drugs.

In New Orleans, Joey attends the conference about angels, but discovers the author is a racist and a liar.

In Baton Rouge, as they reach Jane's son's communion, she is afraid that she will not recognize him seven years after her accident and subsequent coma.
