I think I need a Bob Dylan icon
May. 19th, 2008 10:10 amI mean, I've never particularly been a rabid fan (though I have grown up listening to his music and loving what I've heard), but every movie about the guy is so darn good! I adored No Direction Home when I saw it a while back, and I just watched I'm Not There last night, which I absolutely loved (except for maybe the Richard Gere scenes, but what can you do?). It is delightfully nonlinear, especially since I didn't have a clue what I was sitting down to watch and thus missed the whole "Cate Blanchett, Ben Whishaw, Christian Bale, Richard Gere, Marcus Carl Franklin and Heath Ledger are Bob Dylan" thing. It was lovely and poetic. That's my movie rec for the day month year.
Opinion seems to be pretty dang polarised on it, though, since critics either sing its praises or pan it - anyone else watch it?
