I'm Not There is a biographical film reflecting the life of musician Bob Dylan. It depicts the iconic singer-songwriter through seven distinct stages of his life by using six different actors (Marcus Carl Franklin, Ben Whishaw, Heath Ledger, Christian Bale, Richard Gere, and Cate Blanchett).[1] It was co-written and directed by Todd Haynes and also features David Cross, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Julianne Moore, Michelle Williams, and Richie Havens.
The film has received much press for telling its story using non-traditional techniques, similar to the poetic narrative style of Dylan's songwriting. "The film is going to be inspired by Dylan's music and his ability to re-create and re-imagine himself time and time again," according to key producer, Christine Vachon. It was rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for language, some sexuality and drug use.
I'm just gonna have to say this has all my favourite actors, mainly Ledger and Bale and...wow..Blanchett as a guy. It was bound to happen.

So this was set as limited release in the states, set to be released in Australia on boxing day and well, as a Dylan fan, what do you yanks who've seen it think about this movie as a whole? I'm quite interested in some comments on this one.
