I'm Not There
All I can do is be me, whoever that is.
Directed by Todd Haynes
Produced by Endgame Entertainment, Killer Films
A fragmented, formally audacious meditation on identity and reinvention that uses six actors and nonlinear storytelling to capture the elusive, contradictory nature of artistic genius.
Six actors portray six personas of music legend Bob Dylan in scenes depicting various stages of his life, chronicling his rise from unknown folksinger to international icon and revealing how Dylan constantly reinvented himself.
