Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese 2019
charismatic bobby spinning his own yarn
marty decides to follow dylan's lead and blends fact and fiction in this carnival-as-movie
even for dylan skeptics, there's patti and ginsberg. and then there's joan baez dressed in a bob dylan costume.
todd haynes "i'm not there" is still the best dylan movie. and "no direction home" and "don't look back" are still the best dylan-on-film entry points. counter-intuitively, dylan feels younger and lighter on his feet here during "rolling thunder revue".
unclear how this movie plays for people who haven't spent their whole lives saturated in bobby's catalog.
