Postmodern Narrative Strategies in Todd Haynes's Biopic I'm Not There
The present thesis aims to analyse the narrative strategies used by director Todd Haynes in his Bob Dylan biopic I’m Not There (2007). The strategies examined are intertextuality, pastiche, and fragmentation, all of them typical of postmodernism. The opening chapter focuses on the theoretical underpinning of the thesis and thus provides an overview of postmodernism, its historical background, and its artistic forms with emphasis on the postmodern biopic genre. The following chapters introduce the postmodern narrative strategies employed by Haynes, presenting its definitions and purposes, and offering examples in the wider context of postmodern cinema. The analytical chapters of the thesis apply this theoretical framework to Todd Haynes’s biopic I’m Not There with the aim of exploring the connection between narrative strategies and the theme of fragmented identity. The thesis concludes that Haynes’s postmodern approach to the biopic genre results in the deconstruction of traditional representation of truth as a single, unified, linear narrative, and the related ideas of historical accuracy in the portrayal of the biopic’s subject, opening up the film’s portrayal of Dylan to multiple interpretations.
