Bristol Cinema - I'm Not There, Bristol, Somerset
6 January 2008: Bristol Cinema - I'm Not There
Todd Haynes' unconventional journey into the life and times of Bob Dylan takes six actors including Heath Ledger, Christian Bale, Ben Wishaw and Cate Blanchett to create a conceptually audacious, and playful, multi-layered portrait of this icon poet.
'it's intelligent to see Dylan the man, the husband, the artist, the political being, and the religious being as completely separate entities because no simple biopic sequence can really dramatize the complexity of such an artist and such a protean existence. Haynes' film makes you think about biography itself, as well as giving imaginative shape to aspects of Bob Dylan no non-fiction account can really provide.'
'a psychedelic curiosity that does the myth and reluctance of Dylan proud.'
'Quite simply the best music biography I have ever seen; and if you argue that it isn't a biography then you miss the point entirely - a beautiful, complex, and impish tribute to the man who cannot be pinned down.'
'In emulating Dylan, the film itself is structured much like a poem. Haynes strings together fact and fiction, the real and surreal and the self and society into a magnificent fabric that illustrates the identity of one of the greatest American icons.'
'And then Cate Blanchett arrives. To call her work here magnificent is too undeserving an understatement. She is regal, almost unrecognizable. She masterfully morphs into the pot-scented genius who ruled his world with a typewriter and a six string. She is I'm Not There's trump card, its piecemeal paradigm of fame, disillusion, influence, and flaws. If there is any justice in the award season shuffle she'd win the Oscar as both Best Actress and Actor.'
