I'm Not There is a forthcoming movie (November 21) which traces the life and career of Bob Dylan, What is unique about the film is that 6 actors will be playing Dylan at different times in his legendary career. Today the cover story of the New York Times Magazine talked about the film and its producer Todd Haynes.(http://www.nytimes.com/2007/10/07/magazine/07Haynes.html?_r=1&ex=1349496000&en=f45236abf9976a13&ei=5088&partner=rssnyt&emc=rss&oref=slogin)
Movies by and about Dylan for the most part have not been accepted by mainstream audiences. I sense that I'm Not There will only be of interest to Dylan enthusiasts. The soundtrack CD will be released on October 30th. On the same day there will be a release of a DVD of his performances at the Newport Folk Festival.
I was trying to get to Brian Matthew's show on BBC2 but I found this hour long compilation of Dylan concert recordings.
