an amazing dream

Rating: 9/10 (14 May 2009)

This isn't a movie. It's more of a dream. Albeit, it is a wonderful dream worth having if you love Bob Dylan's music.
The film is very avant-garde and surreal. The story is not linear. Many different actors play different parts of Bob Dylan's life. The disconjointed parts are made cohesive thru the moods of the music and the emotion of the scenes.
Todd Haynes made some brave and bold choices with the way he wrote, cast and shot this film. Personally, I think it all works very well. It is definitely the kind of film that gets better with repeated viewings. I love it and can't wait to watch it again. Check it out!
