Emily and Phil continue their “Films of the Todds” mini series as they take on Todd Haynes’s ambitious and unconventional biopic I’m Not There. They are joined by film critic and podcaster Ryan Marker for a conversation about this multi-layered portrait of Bob Dylan, identity, and the myth of American celebrity.

Together, they break down the film’s innovative structure, discuss Cate Blanchett’s acclaimed performance and the daring decision to cast six actors as different facets of Dylan, and examine how Haynes’s storytelling approach turns biography into a surreal and poetic experience. The episode also explores the film’s music, visual style, and its place in both Haynes’s career and the larger tradition of rock and roll cinema.
