I'm not the biggest Bob Dylan fan but this movie made me appreciate some songs a bit more. It was very interesting to see some big stories in the background like the Cuban missile crisis. The movie didn't fully grab my attention though, especially during the second half I could feel the length.

It's truly baffling to see this movie garnering Oscar buzz and multiple nominations while Better Man, a far superior film in every way, is left out of the conversation. This film is just passable on its best day, whereas Better Man outshines it across the board and deserves far more recognition. I wasn’t planning to make this about Better Man, but given the awards hype and ratings, it’s hard not to be frustrated - it just doesn’t make sense.

My favorite musical biopic I’ve seen so far. Not only are the singing and acting performances astounding, but I found it absolutely fascinating how the film focuses on so many of the big people around Dylan during his rise to fame, even taking the time to focus on some of their issues, Johnny Cash’s alcoholism for instance. Also, the harmony between Timothée Chalamet and Monica Barbaro is beautiful.

i love this movie so much and it still amazes me how talented everyone is and how much timothee had to do to prepare for this role. will watch a million more times.

This was one of the biopics of all time.

[8.5/10] I enjoyed this more than I hoped. The performances were strong throughout though I found the song for Woody Guthrie a bit weak (the emotion was very much there, but the vocals were my least favorite of the film). Monica Barbaro might have been my favorite casting choice. While it’s nearly impossible to sound exactly like someone else, the soul she brought to her versions of the songs was outstanding. I’d love to hear more from her. Timothée Chalamet really sold his portrayal as well. I enjoyed his singing voice more than Bob Dylan’s most of the time! (But I am a fan of them both, lol.) Elle Fanning, Edward Norton, and the rest of the cast were all fantastic, too. I don't anticipate finding myself in the mood to watch this story again very soon, but it was very well told and engaging pretty much the entire way through, even though it somehow felt much longer than its actual runtime—maybe because they managed to pack so many little details into it! I cried a handful of times, which always makes a movie feel more impactful. I’m so grateful I was able to catch this at my local theater! My grandma _really_ loved it and rated it a 9.9/10. :rofl: Her only gripe was with Timothée’s voice, but clearly, that didn’t ruin it for her. 😅

This took the 1 small tidbit I knew about Bob Dylan my trivia fact, and let everyone know. I don't watch teasers or trailers, so as I eating before the movie, my Dad and I were talking about Bob Dylan, and I said when he went from acoustic to rock, it pissed off a lot of the people in the folk industry.
