Inspired by the many lives and music of Bob
Dylan,
I’m Not There uses non-traditional
narrative techniques, intercutting the storylines
of the six different Dylan-inspired characters.
The actors - Christian Bale,
Cate Blanchett, Marcus
Carl Franklin, Richard
Gere, Heath Ledger, and Ben
Whishaw -depict different facets
of Dylan’s life, public persona
and creative being. The
result is much more than
a straight-forward
biopic, perhaps
more of a “Ballad
of a Thin Man”. The
film won numerous major
festival awards for Todd Haynes
and Cate Blanchett’s acting, for
which she was also nominated for an
Academy Award®. (35mm presentation)
Christine Vachon is
scheduled to be present.
