[AGL] I'm Not There

[Jon Ford]

Mike--you're right about the boring episodes. A lot of them just explore well-known cliches about Dylan, 
without any great revelations. The movie could have been much shorter. I think the "No Direction Home" film is the ultimate Dylan film, but "I'm Not There" is  a  bad fake about a guy who is a  faker himself-- but a hell of a good one.
