iW VIDEO: Todd Haynes & Christine Vachon on "I'm Not There"

Two hours before the debut of the "I'm Not There" at the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival on Wednesday night (September 12th), director Todd Haynes and producer Christine Vachon step outside of the film's pre-screening premiere party to talk with indieWIRE about the challenges of making the film and the theme of "identity" that touches many of the films the two have made together over the years. The new film, inspired by Bob Dylan, stars Cate Blanchett, Richard Gere, Christian Bale, Heath Ledger and others each portraying a Dylan-esque character at a different point in his life.

This is fucking perfection. Haynes' brilliance cannot be understated. He's one of these directors where you see one of his films and you just know. How he manages to interweave an academic sensibility and truly creative/artistic nuance is fresh and mindblowing.

The Dark Knight will own all!!!! And yes I know this has nothing to do with Batman but now anything with Heath Ledger is batman because the Joker rocks.

Heath Ledger  needes a really good role, I think, after the miraculous performance in the Briokeback Mountain. I am glad he is there among the superb fellow thespians under the direction of an truly inspired artist, Todd Haynes.
