Dylan is a genius. You probably don't get it

I might not get it. I am a classically trained pianist and have played Chopin, Between, etc. the hardest pieces in addition to studying composition, harmony, accompaniment, you name it.
I think his lyrics are great, I just don't like the wailing sounds of the voice.

It is not perfect: Timothy’s portrayal of Bob Dylan remained enigmatic and bit superficial throughout. Did not explore why he changed his name from Zimmerman to Dylan in 1962 or why he seemingly ghosted his Jewish family in Minnesota.

But it is an evocative period piece that transported us to 1960s New York/ Greenwich Village. Timothy’s singing improved as the movie went on while Monica Barbaro who played Joan Baez sang her folk classics from that era beautifully.

Edward Norton as Pete Seeger was perfect. Boyd Holbrook as Johnny Cash, Scoot McNairy as Woody Guthrie and Elle Fanning as Dylan’s former girlfriend in real life were all well cast.

I am with the 95% of audience who gave it a fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Yeah right / I apologized as soon as I saw this thread and said I would take my comment to this thread.

I was not impressed with my post but with the movie. But it was not perfect.

DS and I loved it. Timothy did a great job acting *and* performing the songs and that’s not easy to do.

I listened to the entirety of Biograph today. So fantastic I hope there’s a renewed interest in Dylan’s music.

I love Dylan and agreed it was a movie. Oscar worthy performances but it left you wanting more. That's the point i suppose

Yes! I’m a huge Dylan fan and thought it was really well done. Chalamet was amazing and there were moments I forgot it wasn’t Dylan.
