i'm not there 2007

10/9 watch I’m Not There todd haynes.   had bn not so int bcs ~ catherine blanchett as dylan feels too..fmlr.  but now am int, d n know had christian bale.  is other char actually a singer, I guess more folk (blanchett dylan more electric, rock).  then heath ledger as movie star plays bayle char, gets the love story like dylans, w charlotte gainsbourg, who I can see here as interesting beautiful.  / so those three as young men Dylan, stars.  then the poet Dylan, a voice.  ben whishaw who is lead in the bbc criminal justice, of wh ‘night of’ is adaptatn.  / then older mythological outlaw figure billy played by gere.  and kid following the mythology hopping trains calling himself Woody Guthrie.  //
pretty cool.  collage poetry ~ in vicinity of idea of this person bob dylan.  int to read about. 
christian bale char, 42 min into film, drunk receiving civil liberties award: “ first of all bcs you’re all young.  and it’s taken me a while to get young; and now I consider myself young. and I’m proud of it.  it aint old peoples world out there.”  /isn’t it? they’re shaping it but ~ the young have it to be within, to react to./  (‘I’m younger now’)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0368794/faq   the young boy hops trains and lives with hobos-poor folks, the poorest. He is 'saved' by middle-class white folks, who treat him as a curiosity, but don't pay much attention to his radical political ideas. As an adult, as Cate Blanchett, Christian Bale, or Heath Ledger, he struggles with this 'split'-how can he sing songs about poor folks to middle-class folks…   Each of them struggles with the split differently-through anger, opposition, sadness.  /wh? is it th dffrnt?  I read chr bale as sad.  but also angry.  oppositional.  blanchett all those as well, rt.  ledger mostly angry?//
bale: “you can boo, but booin’s got nothing to do w it.”   “they want me to sing pointing fingers songs, I only got ten fingers.”

/love this movie, crafted  ~
                             rimbaud char speaking throughout as voice poet under all.
