Currently in the post production phase, a familiar finder has swooped up the rights to the imaginative Todd Haynes’ Bob Dylan biopic. The Weinstein bros. who were big on his glam rock flick Velvet Goldmine back during the Miramax days, have picked up the North American and U.K. rights to I'm Not There. The company plans to release the movie later this year in the U.S.

Produced by Killer Films, Jim Stern’s Endgame Entertainment banner with John Goldwyn, Jeff Rosen and John Rosen on board, the pic currently in post prod was shown in portions to some of the indie distribs – and the Weinsteins probably landed the rights, and this is purely specualtion … in the more than 10 plus million mark. It helps when you have both a solid cast, a great soundtrack and a unique screenplay.

Shot in Montreal this past summer, the set was a closed one but I managed to come across a day of filming – here is that ‘coverage’.
