When the Deal Goes Down

Having just read on Pitchfork that Scarlett Johansson's Anywhere I Lay My Head--an album of mostly Tom Waits covers--will be released on May 20th, I rewatched this great video from 2006. One of my favorite songs on an album that gets better and better, it also makes me happy because Scarlett Johansson's doing her best Marilyn Monroe. Is it weird that I'm excited about her album? I think it's pretty weird.

In other Dylan notes, I finally saw I'm Not There. It was better than I thought it would be and is worth seeing for Cate Blanchett and Christian Bale's performances alone.
