      A little touch

      Dylan is always so distant and mysterious. I forgot who said he didn't answer direct questions before. Rubin later said that when Dylan came to visit him in prison, he was the only person who didn't ask direct questions. The speech is also always mystical. I like the sentence he said at the end, when the interviewer asked him what rolling thunder left for today: nothing. ashes, probably.

      The conversation between Joan Baez and Dylan at the bar was too...

      The favorite master brings a group of masters in various fields to roam

      There are still 2 brushes, all of them are masters, and even if you follow the masters, they are awesome in the end! Bob: When I first met her, she seemed to have descended on the earth with a meteor shower! I often hear her voice in my dreams. Joan: As long as I see Bob singing, I will forgive everything. I have never seen his charm in others. Joan painted white oil paint on her face and put on a hat to pretend to be Bob. At that moment, they felt that they should be a person and a soul....

      Record fragment

      1. Talk to me about the spirit of the tour. If you sing a new song and many viewers want to listen to the old song. Oh Lasso. This is the first rule, the basic rule of anticipation. If you have high expectations, you will be disappointed, so you can't have any expectations. But people have expectations, people have expectations. That's what they expected, Lasso, we can't be responsible for everyone, you know, all those people who expect high, who the hell cares? 2. I think it's quite...

      Music of that era

      I watched this movie in a hop. To be honest, it’s a bit difficult to appreciate this kind of singing and genre from the eyes of people nowadays.

      Looking at the background of singing, I seem to be able to understand this style of music again. It was during the Cold War between the United States and the former Soviet Union. The United States’ economy was sluggish and needed to be encouraged. The roar of Bob when he sang, coupled with the exhilarating lyrics, really seemed to cheer up...

      Star Spangled Banner

      "The point of life is not to find yourself, or to find anything. The point of life is to create yourself and create things." Bob Dylan, who is nearly an old man, summed up some kind of life insights in the documentary "Rolling Thunder Tour:" The beginning of "The Legend of Bob Dylan" said so. This is the second documentary filmed by Martin Scorsese for him. The film contains a large number of interviews and tour information of the parties involved, and a series of fictional characters and...

      More than just an archival compilation indeed. Ending credits the players list is really a pun. It not only includes the performers who were on tour that year, but also directly refers to the performers of this film. The director of this film is structured as a performance. The silent film at the beginning and the end, the encore, does not conflict with the fictional part in it. Well (you can't tell just by watching a movie). In the subtitle section, you can see the source and creator of the...

      It's like watching a concert. Bob Dylan's songs are so narrative, and the organization is also powerful, especially with a strong sense of criticism. Singing is also very improvisational, and the tone changes a lot, no wonder it can become popular. Thinking of Li Zhi and Luo Dayou, I feel that Chinese folk music really does not have such a strong effect on changing public opinion or the trend of the times. ps I feel more and more that Bob Dylan's melody is really...

      Dylan was too difficult at the time. He was caught in the quagmire of copyright disputes, coupled with marital crisis and lawsuits, the Rolling Thunder tour was nothing more than an "escape". After all, Ma is true love to Dylan, and the protagonist's halo must be enlarged. However, the first part of Rolling Thunder's 75-year tour is indeed the pinnacle, and the live part of the HD restoration is very...

    Movie quotes

    • Interviewer: What were the audiences like that you played to?

      The Balladeer: Well, they would all be hysterically happy. So, I mean, you can't really judge much from saying "What would the audiences be like?" They would all be people who would've slit each other's throats to get there.
