Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese

You have to do ALOT of drugs to like this movie and the music. This Dylan guy comes across like a serious jerk and narcissist. Why is everyone kissing his ass? I know he was a great songwriter in the 60's but this is a bad hippy trip and a mess of a documentary.

A must see, whether you are Bob Dylan fans or not, this is an amazing portrait of America during the 70s. Brilliant.

All in all, a most peculiar film https://uberscaryblog.blogspot.com/2022/10/when-somebodys-wearing-mask-hes-gonna.html

Whether you are a Bob Dylan fan or not, this is a fascinating look back at the 1970s in the USA.

Its a very mediocre music documentary, maybe interesting for Dylan fans but there are really few things to make it remarkable. Seems like no one who was interview remembered the time very well and Scorsese had to use the footage to keep the boat afloat.

Finally watched Rolling Thunder on Netflix last night - loved it! Favorite moment for me was a conversation just between Dylan and Joan Baez -- among myriad other wonderful moments.But this is a strange documentary....I'd like to read or hear what Scorsese says about it. I know nothing about how it came to be what it is. There isn't that much contemporary or retroactive analysis...and a goodly portion of what's there is a goof (which I hadn't read/heard about ahead of time, but caught on quickly, being knowledgeable about Dylan, and about some of the people featured in the film. The music and the footage from 1976 is well worth it tho. Especially if into Dylan. I tried to watch Renaldo and Clara twice in my lifetime and don't think ever got through it...it's really not watchable...but some of the footage from that is here. And handfuls of super cool footage--musical, audience, societal, interpersonal, and talking heads (like Sam Shepard, Allen Ginsberg).

Meandering with great footage and music.

Enjoyed the music and insight into Dylan and this tour. Don't agree with NY Times that's it's the best movie, so far, in 2019.

An interesting insight into Bob Dylan's ambitious tour.

Best film I have seen in 2019
