Review of I'm Not There (2007) by Kunal S — 04 Dec 2011

I'm Not There is the great biopic for the one and only, Bob Dylan. It shows his remarkable life In six different kinds of people. First there is Jack, That represents Dylan's Folk singing; Woody Guthrie, a young African-american that escapes from a homeless center; Robbie, who represents Bob Dylan's Personal life during the 70s; Billy the Kid, who wakes up in some valley, which also represents Dylan as sometimes being an outsider; Jude, another folk singer who changes his music from folk to folk rock, then gets booed off stage, also like Dylan; and then theres Arthur Rimbaud, a poet that made an impression on Bob Dylan.

All this equals up to Bob Dylan, though It never talks about him. But at the end it does show him playing a hermonica. You actually learn a lot in this, if your not a fan of him. Great Idea, which is kind of confusing, but you will still be able to understand it. It also has a good soundtrack with various artist that you may know. Theres also an appearance of the singer from My Morning Jacket and Calexico, performing "Going to Acapulco" during a burial with Billy the Kid. Cate Blanchett is really good in this, surprisingly playing a man. She was so good, that I actually thought she was a guy when I first watched a part in this. If your interested in a movie full of good actors, WATCH I'M NOT THERE!
