Ha, ha, as soon as I saw this post, I checked your profile for the previous posts to find those about I'm Not There. So, Leslie, do you like this film as a whole? I think the reviews I've seen so far have been rather extreme, like it or dislike it, I've not seen one that is in the middle.
Overall I liked it, yes, although I felt like it started to drag in the last third. While Cate Blanchett was excellent, I felt like her "episode" as Jude Quinn started to get repetitious. I didn't entirely understand the Richard Gere episode. The other episodes: Marcus Carl Franklin (Woody Guthrie), Christian Bale (Jack Rollins), and Heath (Robbie Clark) were all excellent with Ben Whishaw, as Arthur Rimbaud, the poet, as the glue that held everything together.
I am glad I saw it in the theater because there is alot going on on the screen. Watching DVDs at home, I find my attention wanders. I am more focused in the theater.
