Amazing . . .My dear niece, who first invited me to join flixster actually, was working the bar at a London venue where Bob Dylan was playing. At some point she was sent backstage to deliver Dylan a beer. Like me, my niece is a big fan of his; we still are. Her report: H

This isn't just a great music documentary... this is a great film. Director D.A. Pennebaker does a lot of inventive things to ensure that his movie will stand on its own and he succeeds. This is a candid, brilliantly energetic glimpse into the life of a genius, and it captures so... read more
I?ve always been a casual Bob Dylan fan, and recently I?ve become more and more aware of this D.A. Pennebaker documentary chronicling his 1965 English tour. A lot of this footage has become iconic out of context, a handful of quotes from it were used in Todd Hayne?s film I?m Not... read more
It's a great "fly-on-the-wall" documentary. D.A. Pennebaker really constructed one heck of a portrait. Although it seems somewhat on the side of trying to show Dylan as "super cool" and "super philosophical", which ends up making him look like he's a jerk talking out of his ass. ... read more
Great pioneering documentary on the legendary Bob Dylan. Pennebaker made a masterpiece sure to be enjoyed by Dylan and non Dylan fans alike. Remember when documentarians let the subjects speak for themselves?

Great look at Bob Dylan during a tour of Britain in 1965. The interview footage of a snide and snarky Dylan is a must see for any fan of the music.
An unforgettable all-access pass behind the scenes of Bob Dylan's '65 British tour, D.A. Pennebaker's landmark 1967 rock doc all but invented the form while presaging the music video. Full Review
Whether one is a member of the under-30 set that regards Mr. Dylan as a spokesman, or one of the vanishing Americans over that age, this look into the life of a folk hero is likely to be both entertai... Full Review
D.A. Pennebaker's 1967 film, which invented the rock documentary, is a time capsule from the period when Sgt. Pepper was steamrolling Mr. Tambourine Man. Full Review
Unencumbered by voiceover or any sort of forced narrative, the result is an intimate and riveting look at Dylan unfiltered, a portrait of the artist as a 24-year-old superstar. Full Review
It's a classic doc worth savoring for its brilliant bitchiness. Full Review
Dylan courses through like loose mercury, a capricious nightmare, inscrutable jester, brilliant artist Full Review
The film's greatest incidental pleasures are images of a time when outlaw musicians wore suit jackets and the craggy Dylan was a delicate, unconventionally handsome young man. Full Review
Essential raw Dylan.
