Nobel Prize winner Bob Dylan said: I think the most sinful people are those who see something wrong and know in their heart that it is wrong but don't want to face it.

The title of the film exposes two of Dylan's most prominent traits: rebellion and openness.

Regarding rebellion, in my opinion, so many rock stars have no first place in Chinese.

And the real openness, I think only Dylan did.

That's why he didn't physically destroy himself like other rock stars.

For reference, Lennon had Dylan's rebellion, but not Dylan's intelligence.

The young are old, and the old is more powerful.
