It's Still a Rumor, But Rolling Stone is Typically Credible So... 🤭

Honestly, it would be so cool to see him perform Dylan songs live for such a big audience. We've got to take the information with a grain of salt because only time will tell if the rumors are true. :)

Wow...This seems to be coming out FAST! It seems like just yesterday he started filming this lol.

Anyway....This actually looks pretty good! 😃 I don't know a single thing about Bob Dylan lol, but that's what Biopics are for! I can get a glimpse into someone's life that I knew nothing about.

I'll definitely check it out.

The music is the movie

I’ve read various accounts of how closely “A Complete Unknown” - the new Bob Dylan biopic I watched a few nights ago - sticks to the facts.

As with every other biopic, the Dylan movie no doubt includes some sugar-coating - in both commission and omission - for dramatic effect, etc. Those moments are fairly obvious.

But who cares? It’s all about the music. In fact, I would argue that the music is the movie. Plot? Narrative? Mere hooks on which to hang the songs.

The movie had me singing like a madman. It got me back at my six-string, banging out all that three-cord truth from the mind of a true musical genius.

I had a blast.

Watched A Complete Unknown a few days ago and got inspired. (also discovered new effects so that’s why it looks a bit crazy 😅)

Bob Dylan’s music was something I grew up on, and even though I’m not much of a biopic fan, I loved the movie. The singing (especially from Monica Barbaro) was lovely, and it was a great tribute to an extremely influential man. Now, I’m not so sure how historically accurate it was, but I’ve learned to take movies like this with a grain of salt

Some of his autobiographical lyrics aside, Bob Dylan has always tended to be a pretty private person, which makes the idea of a biopic about him that much more interesting. But James Mangold, who wrote, produced, and directed the new film A Complete Unknown, wanted to delve even deeper into the mystery of Dylan. And that's why he decided to focus solely on the short period of time just before his career really started to take off.

A Complete Unknown is now playing in theaters.

Joining the fandom of a classic rock musician after a biopic is the fandom equivalent of going to the gym in January.

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

It's (Not) All Over Now Baby Blue (How A Complete Unknown Won After All)

It's incredible that tonight marked the final big event for the film, A Complete Unknown: the Oscars. It has been an incredible past few months watching its cast passionately share this film with the world. While tonight, the movie didn't take home any Academy Awards, it's safe to say that those who worked on it didn't leave the Dolby Theatre disappointed.

Timothee Chalamet made his appearance at the ceremony hand in hand with his mother, who beamed with pride at her son's achievement. Whether he won or lost, he already held the record of being the youngest two-time Oscar nominee since James Dean. More importantly, he accomplished his mission of embodying Bob Dylan, an artist who refused to be categorized and charted his own path by breaking past expectations.

Monica Barbaro was a breakout star this season with her portrayal of Joan Baez. Despite being a fierce member of the film, Top Gun: Maverick, it was her role in A Complete Unknown that truly introduced her to a new audiences. Her dedication to playing the part of a headstrong woman who was devoted to her career, earned Barbaro the admiration of many people, especially women who saw their experiences reflected through her.

Elle Fanning's emotional depiction of a political activist and artist, who realized the difficulties of loving an rising star brought a once overlooked part of Suze Rotolo's story to life. Edward Norton truly captured the pathos of Pete Seeger, who was caught between his love of the folk music of the past and the realization that the times were indeed changing and headed towards a new sound. Boyd Holbrook displayed the rebellious nature of Johnny Cash, who understood Dylan's frustration and encouraged him to let loose and "make some noise". On the other hand, without saying a word, Scoot McNairy delivered one of the most emotional moments in the film as Woody Guthrie, Dylan's hero, who inspired him to become a singer.

Clearly, the film, A Complete Unknown has many stand out performances that are worthy of an Academy Award. Regardless, those who devoted years of work into this project ended the night on a high note because of the global impact their film made. So many young people who didn't know about the folk scene in the 60's now belt out "It Ain't Me Babe" or shed a tear listening to "Song to Woody". This film also opened up the conversation about the importance of staying true to one's identity amidst the chaos of the world. Yes, the movie didn't take home an Oscar, but it earned something even more meaningful: the love and admiration of audiences who were inspired by the story of Dylan, Baez, and their contemporaries, which is as relevant now as it was in the 1960's. While the premieres, Q&A's, and award ceremonies have come and gone, A Complete Unknown's legacy continues to live on like a rolling stone.

While the Mafia connected to British and Irish individuals like Cillian Murphy try to float that Benedict Cumberbatch lost this role, because of them, I'll just go ahead and inform the public about Edward Norton being in on the attempted extortion plot, against the actor. Recall at the time, that he and Henry Louis Gates Jr just HAPPENED to release an episode revealing Norton's family once owned slaves, and then Norton did interviews, loudly stating how 'we NEED to talk about this very important subject."

After the extortion plot failed, Norton suddenly shut up about it. And was in the propaganda-filled Glass Onion and is just a straight up asshole. They can have him for Bob Seeger.
