Indie DVD Pick of the Week

I'M NOT THERE

Most people weren't their, at the theatres when this movie came out, resonably, because it had no target audience. I'm Not There follows 6 different versions of Bob Dylan, all representing different sides -- the best being a fantastic Cate Blanchette and the late Heath Ledger (who beautifully interacts with the mesmerizing Charolette Gainsbough). It can be as weird as the premise occasionally (especially concerning Richard Gere as a Dylan/Billy the Kid) but the few great scenes are worth it in the end.

Cate Blanchett is amazing in just about everything she does. She's great in Notes on a Scandal, and she saved the somewhat overblown The Golden Age, in which she reprised her role as Queen E I.
