Anything related to the topic of Bob Dylan is for me an obligation.
Of course I will see this movie. It has gotten good reviews but I would see it anyway.
From the first time I heard Dylan I became an instant fan. No warm-up period needed.
He was different. He sang songs that were like guidelines for life.
Dylan won the Nobel Prize for Literature. No musician has ever done that because nobody writes lyrics like Bob Dylan.
He stands alone for his influence on other musicians and his impact on American music.
This movie covers his first four years after arriving in NY from Minnesota.
My sister got me a book the size of a phone book on Dylan. I read it cover to cover. I have listened to and read solo every song he has written.
I am still amazed that after 62 years of listening to Dylan that his lyrics still astound me.
So hell yes I will see this movie.
