Bob Dylan: I'm Not There

A film biopic about Bob Dylan is due out late September 2007. The film is co-written and directed by Todd Haynes. Haynes' previous films include Poison and Far from Heaven. Both are worth a look.

Given the title of the film -- I'm Not There: Suppositions on a Film Concerning Dylan -- it is no surprise to learn six actors portray Dylan: Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, Marcus Carl Franklin, Richard Gere, Heath Ledger, and Ben Wishaw.

Here's a clip of the film with Cate Blanchett as Dylan, the 1966 edition. Who knows how long the clip will stay up:
