Az amerikai Todd Haynes 2002-ben lett világszerte ismert Távol a mennyországtól című művével, amelyet a Velencei Filmfesztivál Arany Oroszlán díjára jelöltek, majd bekerült az azévi Golden Globe és Oscar-díj nevezettek közé is. Haynes nemcsak rendezte a filmet, hanem a forgatókönyvet is maga írta, csakúgy, mint az I'm Not There esetében. Írótársául most Oren Movemant választotta, a szereplőgárdához pedig impozáns sztárnévsort válogatott össze: Cate Blanchett, Richard Gere, Heath Ledger, Christian Bale, Michelle Williams, Julianne Moore, Charlotte Gainsbourg alakítják a főbb szerepeket. Közülük hatan, például Gere, Ledger, Bale és meglepő módon még Blanchett is Bob Dylan életének különböző szintjeit és aspektusait testesítik meg. Ez az első életrajzi jellegű játékfilm, amely a zenei legenda jóváhagyását is megszerezte. A rendező Todd Haynes szerint „kiemelkedő lehetőség Bob Dylan életét és munkásságát vászonra vinni. A vállalkozás a legtehetségesebb filmes és zenei tehetségeket vonzotta magához." (ADS Service)

At times it’s not very viewer-friendly, it lacks a narrative structure, but I still enjoyed it. If I had to liken Haynes's film to something, two words come to mind: emotional puzzle. It’s main asset is the almost permanent music of Dylan in the background, the recreation of the atmosphere of the beatnik generation and the incredible Cate Blanchett, who perfectly nailed Dylan's tics, movements and even the cigarette holding. On the other hand, the unnecessary Richard Gere (although I understand "what the poet meant to say") and the overly long runtime bring this film down a peg. PS: I really liked Ben Whishaw with his insecure, embarrassed, boyish expression, so typical of young Dylan :o)

A biography you haven't seen before. That is, of course, if you haven't seen it already... Not only do various filming formats alternate here, but also actors in the lead role change. Even though each character has a different name, they all in some way represent a part of Bob Dylan's life. That is what this film is about. It’s a documentary you won't easily find elsewhere, a musical where songs serve as a soundtrack rather than being sung by the characters necessarily, and of course, a film where all selected actors shine in their best light. Christian Bale, along with Ben Whishaw and Heath Ledger, and especially Cate Blanchett, showcase their incredible versatility. In this film, however, not a single actor is lost. Still, it's all about that one person and his beautiful music. The film surprised me a lot, I must admit. I'm not saying it's easily digestible, but it's something new, experimental, and definitely not bad.

First and foremost, I must praise all the actors portraying the legendary musician Bob Dylan, among whom the queen is the amazing Cate Blanchett. Speaking of women, the ethereal Charlotte Gainsbourg as the girlfriend of Robbie Clark, played by Heath Ledger, made a very strong impression. I don't care that I sometimes got lost in the tangle of imaginary destinies - after all, in real life, we all more or less get lost. And I want to lose myself with brilliant lyrics on my lips and wonderful music in my heart, both of which I got in spades thanks to this cinematic treat. (90%)
