I SAW BOB DYLAN

Yes!!! I saw the film of the year in the Mostra de Cinema de São Paulo, last monday . "I'm not there" is not only a great title, an interesting biography of Bob Dylan or an amazing opportunity to actress Cate Blanchet, who plays the musician's top life period - just like a woman. The film is NEW in it's way of telling a story, what makes the whole big difference for those who appreciate good movies. Hats off to Mr. Todd Haynes.
There are seven characters, under different names, playing different aspects of Bob Dylan's life: Markus Carl Franklin plays his imaginary childhood, a young and poor wanderer who writes songs and plays guitar (blues) like a pro; Christian Bale is the successful Dylan as a folk-singer and political prophet, and later the born-again evangelist; Up-and-coming British actor Ben Whishaw (naming himself Arthur Rimbaud) incorporates Dylan's transgressive poet verve during a long interview; Heath Ledger plays Dylan as never there husband and father of two girls; Cate Blanchet is Dylan as we all know him; and finally Richard Gere plays his retired days.
Than, there are also great costars such as Charlotte Gainsbourg, Julianne Moore and Michelle Williams - and David Cross playing beat poet Allen Ginsberg.

And last, I just saw at IMDb that actor Stephen Rea is also playing Bob Dylan in "Kisses", by Lance Daly. The movie is yet to be released, so let's wait and see. Hair for that, we know Rea has it.
