In an event that has brought together Bob Dylan and Martin Scorsese. The two-part film, which focuses on the singer-songwriter's life and music from 1961-66, includes never-seen performance footage and interviews with artists and musicians whose lives intertwined with Dylan's during that time. Dylan talks openly and extensively about this critical period in his career, detailing the journey from his hometown of Hibbing, Minnesota, to Greenwich Village, New York, where he became the center of a musical and cultural upheaval, the effects of which are still felt today.


For the first time, the Bob Dylan Archives has made available rare treasures from its film, tape and stills collection, including footage from Murray Lerner's film Festival, documenting performances at the 1963, 1964 and 1965 Newport Folk Festivals; previously unreleased outtakes from D.A. Pennebaker's famed 1967 documentary Don't Look Back; and interviews with Allen Ginsberg, Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, Maria Muldaur and many others. In anticipation of the film, members of Dylan's worldwide community of fans also contributed rarities from their own collections.


"Bob Dylan: No Direction Home, A Martin Scorsese Picture" comes on the heels of Dylan's best-selling memoir, Chronicles: Volume I, which spent 19 weeks on the New York Times Hardcover Non-Fiction Bestseller list.


In addition to directing such dramatic films as Raging Bull, Goodfellas and The Aviator, Martin Scorsese is an avid chronicler of the history of American popular music. Most recently, he executive-produced the music miniseries THE BLUES, which aired on PBS, as well as the related concert film Lightning in a Bottle, directed by Antoine Fuqua. Scorsese also directed the documentary The Last Waltz (1978), which captured The Band's legendary farewell concert, and he served as an assistant director and editor on Woodstock (1970).


In discussing his excitement about the current project, Scorsese remarked, "I had been a great fan for many years when I had the privilege to film Bob Dylan for The Last Waltz. I've admired and enjoyed his many musical transformations. For me, there is no other musical artist who weaves his influences so densely to create something so personal and unique."


"When we first began discussing this project years ago, we were overwhelmed by the material at hand - home movies and history-making concert footage, fascinating interviews with Dylan's friends and fellow performers and, of course, Dylan himself, speaking so frankly about this incredible period in his life," said Lacy, series creator and executive producer of AMERICAN MASTERS. "What we needed - above all - was an artist with a singular vision who could fuse this material into a unique visual narrative. That artist was Martin Scorsese, who graciously agreed to direct."


Added Spitfire's Sinclair, "Bob Dylan is a true cultural worldwide icon. This is the first time Bob has given this unprecedented access, which, coupled with Marty's outstanding filmmaking talents, should provide an unparalleled portrait of Dylan's indelible mark on the culture of the 20th century."

Yep, had de pop-encyclopedie erbijgehaald en dit moesten de besten zijn.

En ik vind ze ook allebei erg goed.

Goed gedaan

Dit is dezelfde hij is ook op de BBC te zien geweest.

Het lijkt me juist interesant om van andere musici te horen wat de invloed van Dylan was. Dat kunnen we ons 40 jaar later niet meer voorstellen.

Ja, daar ben ik het helemaal mee eens. Ik vind het jammer dat de nadruk altijd maar weer ligt op die jaren zestig. Dat weten we nou eigenlijk wel een keer. Ik vind zijn latere werk veel beter ook.

Meen je dat ?

Ik vind het totaal oninteressant wat ie te vertellen heeft over die tijd. Morrison en Cobayn wil je ook niet horen verklaren waarom ze dingen deden voor hun dertigste.

O jawel hoor, die wil ik dat heel graag horen verklaren. Ik hoop op veel relativeringsvermogen van Dylan anno nu.

Dan kun je beter naar de kerk gaan. En hijmn lacht tegenwoordig over mensen die zijn teksten van belang vinden. Maar ik doe net alsof het van betekenis was.

Mijn video loopt. Want dit wordt natuurlijk een bewaarband.
