Throughout No Direction Home, the Martin Scorsese film about Bob Dylan, there are clips of Allen Ginsberg in his youth. I had never noticed it before, but while watching I thought, man, he looks a lot like David Cross. I've never been a fan of Cross, but I have seen him a couple times. With his bald head, those dark eyes, and big nerd glasses, I think that he resembles Ginsberg a lot.
What's funny is that the next day I read about I'm Not There, the upcoming movie about Bob Dylan. I had been trying to resist the temptation to read about the film as I never like to know anything about movies before I see them, but I couldn't help it this time. Anyway, guess who plays Allen Ginsberg.
I'm very excited about this movie. I'm concerned, though, because I don't see a Joan Baez character listed. She is necessary. Also, it would be cool if Joaquin Phoenix could make an appearance as Johnny Cash.
