A Complete Unknown

Shallow movie, no insight into Dylan besides what's commonly known. Not much happened in the plot. 2+hr music video. Chalamet learned guitar but still seemed like Timmy doing a spaced out impression. Joan Baez was amazing

The real life adaption of this artist is unmatched. 8/10

Very impressed by Chalamet’s and Norton’s performances. Justifiably Oscar- worthy.

The writing and performances and choice to focus on particular relationshipas in the beginning of Bob's career lend themselves to a great film for those who know and like or know nothing about him.

The selection of the Actors was perfect. The performance of the actors was perfect. I originally resisted watching this movie. I was very concerned that the movie would not reach the emotional connection and feeling that Bob gave me in my 20s. I found myself recounting many amazing memories of that time for me. I am so thankful for the attention detail and the subtleties that only happened because the directors and staff are clearly huge fans of this man's Music and unique style. I applaud and thank you for this masterpiece.

I think for fans of Dylan only. It’s a thorough reconstruction of the era and the people but if you aren’t already familiar with the history you might wonder why they made this movie in the first place.

the cinematography is wonderful and really captures the environment and feel of New York and the folk scene in the early 60s but the movie is nothing original... we have seen this many times before; this typical biopic about the talented song writer that is a selfish jerk who gets everything he wants and then cries about it.... been done a million times better.... why not make a Jimi Hendrix movie, he was a nice guy from beginning to end. Dylan is just another narcists with a guitar.

Timothy Chalamet absolutely inhabits Dylan in a perfect performance. The slight historical inaccuracies don't prevent it from being a hugely enjoyable film.

As a Bob Dylan fan, I was a bit ambivalent about this film but I wound up loving it. Timothee's performance was fantastic and (I think) deserved the Oscar. Ditto Edward Norton as Pete Seeger. All the actors really learned and sang and played the songs, in addition to giving their performances their all. The scene where Dylan first sings The Times They Are A Changing at Newport Folk Festival and stuns the crowd, and then the scene where he goes electric and the crowd is furious, are both great. Also the scene where Dylan and Baez sing It Ain't Me Babe to each other and together, and the chemistry between them is electric. I truly felt transported to the time and place, and Dylan's character was developed but also still maintained some of its real life mystery and aloofness. The type of Hollywood film I love.

Thought Ed Norton's Pete Seeger was also very fun to watch. the scenes of the Village in the 60's were a throwback. I didn't know that Woody Guthrie had Huntington's Disease! I Found Bob to be quite dislikeable. the strongest takeaway was how frustrating it is for an artist who has had one or some very popular songs feels trapped by audiences who expect to hear them and not being interested in newer work. Also Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan's relationship was a surprise to learn about. I learned more about Joan Baez. and I did a lot of reading afterwards, in terms of what the movie chose to leave out, about politics.
