Is Todd Haynes’ I’m Not There the vision of a star’s life as interpreted by an auteur or just six characters in search of an author? Does this explore the connection between the artist and his art or just disconnect the audience from any meaningful response to his work? Is the real Dylan left “Blowin’ in the Wind” and crying out “It Ain’t Me, Babe”? Join us for a screening and linear debate of this non-linear modern classic featuring two legends of Chicago Radio: Columbia College Radio Department faculty member and WXRT personality Terri (“Solid rock!”) Hemmert and WGN Radio’s Garry (“A hard rain’s a-gonna fall on this one”) Meier. Referee’d by Ron Falzone, Film & Video faculty member and host of Talk Cinema.
