In fact, I don’t know much about Bob Dylan and all the things of his time. At most, when there are four hairy lads in the movie, I would realize that it was the Beatles. But I look forward to this movie. To be attracted. I was immersed in the Dylan-style ballad or rock throughout the film, and there were multiple story lines in parallel. Even if there were too many background blanks, which caused too many lines to be puzzled at all, I completely enjoyed watching it. The two-hour course of the movie.
At first I didn’t understand that the black boy who appeared and the person who had been sitting in front of a white background confessing himself were the characters that the movie was going to tell-until it was confirmed that Cate Blanchette appeared in reverse, and the role that won numerous awards was not. It's really called Bob, and I understand what's going on. It turns out that many of these different characters are our Uncle Dylan. The director is interspersed with narrating Bob Dylan from different ages, different moods, and different angles. This is a way I don't know in biographical movies.

Cate Blanchett, my God, even if I watched it with the idea of ​​knowing her success and praise flying all over the sky, I would have to exclaim that her performance was terrifying. Who would have thought that a female rock predecessor with hardcore style could have such a magnetic field? In fact, not only did she show meticulous details in walking, looking, smoking, talking, etc., but the most important thing was that she really looked at the world as an angry, thinking, and ironic genius. Some people commented on "hermaphrodite", which is simply taint. In the black-and-white shots, she is clearly an exceptionally shrewd and rebellious singer of that era. The Thinker—she is clearly not herself at all.
The brilliance lies in the fact that he sang Ballad of a thin man on the piano. With the strange and sharp lyrics, I pointed directly to the BBC host who was arguing with him on the stage-a thin, pale but powerful face, always Punk-like swelling hair, and sang it word by word. The Mr. Jones who stared at the audience mercilessly, the questioning, provocative and contemptuous expressions were all in sight. Bravo! !

The film was very eye-catching when it first came out, because there are indeed a lot of stars. I saw Julian Moore willing to play a very small supporting role, documentary-style interviews received in the camera as Bob’s late partner; and Richard Gere, as Dylan, who retired in his old age in the mountains and villages; and Charlotte Gainsbourg, who I have always liked. She is regarded as a female character with more dramas. After becoming famous, Bob’s girlfriend found something deteriorated, so she let go-always feel that her lanky appearance is very suitable for appearing in such niche works, documentary nature In the works. And found that her authentic English accent in Jane Eyre now immediately became French accent, no matter what, it is the taste of the family.
And she also sang a song by Dylan in this carefully recorded original soundtrack of the movie, as if it did not appear in the movie.

No matter what, I still can't admit that I really understand it. I only know that in the United States in the era when folk songs and rock and roll were popular, singers were not only willing to be entertainment icons. They were social pioneers, they were radicals, and they were philosophers-they knew how to use pop songs in their hands. Weapons to express your confusion, shouts and opinions. So Bob Dylan, Beatles and many famous people before them have been fascinated and missed until now.
In other words, we actually admire the era of pure thinking even more.
If the Beatles are imported from the small British city of Liverpool, then Dylan is completely a native American and the pride of the American nation. I remember watching a scene where Cate was playing with four black-clothed youths of the same age on the grass. When the reporter came over, they left their partners. The four people walked out of the park gate side by side. The funny thing is that they immediately went from the door like a waste. I ran past because there was a large group of star chasers who had discovered the idol.
The prospect Bob still questioned unruly what is Folk.

The PS movie soundtrack is very high quality, because it is not Dylan’s original version, it may have been improved to some extent, and it is more suitable for the ears of our modern listeners.
