I'm Not There

This looks like a really, really cool concept for a movie, a biotopic of Bob Dylan. It has a pretty high profile cast, with Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Richard Gere, Cate Blanchett, Ben Whisaw and Marcus Carl Franklin all starring. All starring as Bob Dylan. It looks facinating, from the trailer:

What also looks to be really cool is the soundtrack, which will have two discs, and will be all Dylan covers.
