Look At the Six Bob Dylans From 'I'm Not There'
By

Jeff from CriterionForum.org posted these high resolution photos from Todd Haynes' upcoming Bob Dylan film I'm Not There. Instead of your run-of-the-mill biopic, the film attempts to portray Dylan's life with a series of vignettes that represent Dylan's changing lyrics and music during certain periods (so don't expect these peeps to look exactly like him).
Here are the six people playing Dylan in the film. Click the thumbnails to view them in a (much) bigger size.
1. Christian Bale
2. Cate Blanchett
3. Marcus Carl Franklin
4. Richard Gere
5. Heath Ledger
6. Ben Wishaw
And lastly, here's Julian Moore as "Alice", the character obviously modeled after Joan Baez.
I'm Not There has a limited release on November 21st.

Saw the film last weekend near Union Square (NYC)and was delighted beyond belief that an important and very well done movie was actually playing in a more or less conventional-theatre, here in the US, for once... In the first few minutes it effortlessly blew away all of the exceedingly large quantity of sophmoric drivel one too often encounters at similar movie houses, from coast to coast. Hence, I suppose, the classic of his from decades ago, "Idiot Wind", if one bothers to take the time to understand those words correctly that is, heh, heh.

Marcus Carl Franklin's character is based off of a fictional back-story that Dylan would tell journalists and interviewers, according to this booklet that I got after seeing the film, which is amazing, to say the least.

I feel as if the Dylan and Blanchett Portrayals are gonna be back to back as they both seem to have the same age and look to em. In fact, I wonder whether they should have just left out either LEdger or Blanchett and let the other take complete control over that part as well...
But I like the concept
