This biographical film about the life of Bob Dylan has something unusual. The story of Bob Dylan uses six actors to play six singers in different periods, telling Bob's life stories and musical experiences in different times. As a child, Woody was an 11-year-old dark-skinned boy. The prototype was the blues master Woody Guthrie. The blues jazz influenced Bob Dylan's early musical style. Boyhood was Arthur, a compensatory singer-songwriter, rebellious and paranoid, a controversial figure. Midlife is Jude, played by Cate Blanchett, a young androgynous rock star; midlife is John/Jack, a singer who rediscovers himself and sings for civil rights; and old age Billy is a well-known outlaw who escaped the prison seemingly carelessly, but in fact escaped the world of secular and politicians. Bob Dylan doesn't seem to be in the film, but he's everywhere.
