Review of I'm Not There (2007) by Chris C — 27 Apr 2009

I was a fan of Dylan's music before I used him as the subject for my bust, but I have grown respect for him. He has actually turned into one of my greatest inspirations. After seeing this movie I understood his importance in music, but also to in society.

In this movie no one is the hero and there is no overcoming of drugs, alcohol abuse, or anything else you see in a movie or a movie about a musician. The movie lets us be the hero thats if we understand Dylan's message.

Dylan is not in the movie nor "is any of the actors". Much like us all we all change, but we sometimes change into something we can never get out. For dylan, he changes to overpower his own self to stay stable through hard times and preserve against life or society if you look at it that way.

I recommend seeing this movie, but you should first understand the life of Bob Dylan before watching it. Again I recommend it.
