That time when Cate Blanchett, Heath Ledger and Christian Bale all played Bob Dylan
1Pop Screen is back, back, back with Bob Dylan, Bob Dylan, Bob Dylan (x2) as Cult Following's Ewan Gleadow rejoins Graham to talk about I'm Not There, Todd Haynes's surreal anti-biopic with six different stars embodying different aspects of Dylan's persona. There's Cate Blanchett as the controversially-electrified superstar Dylan, Christian Bale as protest-singer Dylan, Richard Gere as enigmatic roots weirdo Dylan, as well as Heath Ledger, Marcus Carl Franklin and Ben Whishaw as the other Bobs Dylan.
Graham and Ewan's first task is to unpick all this madness, as well as discuss Dylanological topics such as whether the Christian rock years are underrated or not, and why you should never, ever call him the Voice of a Generation. Somehow we still find time for digressions on Haynes's career from Poison to Dark Water, the legacy of Mike Myers and controversial opinions about Paddington Bear. Admit it, you've missed this.
