I'm Not There - 8/10

Great movie. It was really interesting how all the little things taken together show different aspects of Dylan as he's shown himself to the public over the years.

It was kind of like an autobiography, only instead of telling Dylan's story, it told you his soul. That makes it abstract in parts, but the different characters still pull you in to be involved in each scene, even if you can't tell what the scene is trying to tell you at the time. Also, Cate Blanchett is incredible in this film as the portrayal of Dylan's electric/amphetamine fueled stage of his career.

Also, all the little references were great...and as I'm not a Dylanophile, I probably caught 1 in 3 of them, if that.
