Todd Haynes "I'm Not There"
kelly
Haynes and cinematographer Ed Lachman for a screening of I'm Not There
while they approved the final colour timing for the film. First thing
off is both Todd (who invited me to the screening) and Ed were the
most absolutely nicest, friendly people. The movie was a lot to take
in as the experimental approach to this "biopic" made it more
demanding than a straight life of kind of movie. If you're a fan it's
alot of fun to spot the ways the film makers weaved Dylan "fact" and
"fiction" together and jumped from actor to actor playing Dylan at
different times and situations. As an example, in the Christian Bale
"version" or Bob after he becomes a Christian he leaves the music
industry to became a ordained minister and is performing Pressing On
in a church basement. Another interesting part is a sequence where the
dialogue is all lines from She's Your Lover Now. I don't want to give
to much away, "spoilers" if you will, because I figure most people
reading this post are going to see this fascinating interpretation of
Bob's "life" and they'd like to come to it ready to be surprised. I
will say that there's lot of Bob's own versions of his songs but also
a healthy amount of cover's including, as a couple of standouts, Sonic
Youth doing "I'm Not There" and My Mourning Jacket doing "Going To
Acapulco". Finally Todd said they will, of course, be offering Bob the
opportunity to see the film if he want's to see it.

He's probably waiting by the phone for the call as we speak

Thanks for the report, I'm really looking forward to this film. '
It would be interesting to know if Dylan's own version of the title
track is included??
kelly
According to Todd it will be - it does appear in the film and there
will be a soundtrack. We talked about how it would be an excellent
oppourtunity for cbs/dylan to make a bootleg series release of the
Basement Tapes. Incidentaly I saw it on Monday and Todd said Greil
Marcus would be viewing it on Tuesday.

Yes please. I saw Todd Haynes in an interview on a Hitchcock DVD, he
seems very nice. I'm looking forward to the movie too. But I would
look forward to a Basement box set more

So it is. But it works so beautifully with "I'm Not There"!! It's
listed on youtube as an "unofficial trailer". Someone was having fun
and gave me some as well.

This is not a trailer either, it IS a scene from the movie

Actually, Perfesser, it's more like this:
Sometimes I'm thinkin'
I'm too high to fall.
Sometimes I'm thinkin'
I'm Too high to fall.
Other times I'm thinkin' I'm
So low I don't know
If I can come up at all. ;-)
How are the plans coming for the virtual picnic, anyway?
I think it was a picnic, although it might have been a
barbecue or a cookout or even a clambake like in
Carousel...

I love David Cross, and I think he makes an excellent Allen Ginsberg.
But if there was no such thing as a David Cross, who would you cast in
this role? My
choice: Adam Duritz from Counting Crows.

Things are coming along well... the Committee has settled on Virtual
Bear Mountain ( http://nysparks.state.ny.us/parks/info.asp?parkID=55 )
for the picnic, which can also include elements of potLuck &
coveredDish suppers, & any form of community getTogethers we wish.
I've decided for sure to bring my Granma Buckley's Blueberry Buckle,
if J Buck wd send me down some of them Maine blueberries, which shd be
in season.
Mebbe some one from Long Island cd bring a bushel of steamers.
I'm goin' next week down the shore with the fambly. We'll take it up
on my return, eh? EveryOne start planning!

I saw it advertised one day,
Bear Mountain picnic was comin' my way.
"Come along 'n' take a trip,
We'll bring you up there on a ship.
Bring the wife and kids
Bring the whole family."
Yippee!
