Directed by: James Mangold
Cast: Timothée Chalamet, Edward Norton, Elle Fanning
Time: 141 minutes
Based on 2015 Elijah Wald book
titled Dylan Goes Electric, this film chronicles the early career of
singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, from his move to New York City in an effort to
meet his idol, the recently hospitalized Woody Guthrie ; to his rise to
fame, and to the infamous moment, in 1965, where Dylan got on stage with a band
at the Newport Folk Festival and used electrical instruments, causing massive
controversy but bringing his career to a whole other level.
This is such a good movie. Timothée Chalamet is amazing as Dylan. He brings the young Dylan to life with such brilliance. The supporting cast is also very strong. Edward Norton was so believable as Peter Seeger.
Overall, this is a film I plan on seeing again, a few more times.
