Timothée Chalamet in 'A Complete Unknown'
Excellent news for film fans across Tipperary as the Source Arts Centre, Thurles, will be screening 'A Complete Unknown' next month.
James Mangold’s excellent Bob Dylan biopic hinges instead around his first major reinvention, when he plugged in his electric guitar at 1965’s Newport Folk Festival, the folk equivalent of the premiere of Stravinsky’s Rites Of Spring.
The film builds towards this climax by following the young singer (a superb Timothée Chalamet, capturing Dylan’s voice perfectly) at key steps along the way, from meeting heroes Woody Guthrie (Scoot McNairy) and Pete Seeger (Edward Norton) to relationships with Sylvie Russo (Elle Fanning) and Joan Baez (Monica Barbaro). In no way a hagiography, this hugely enjoyable portrayal sees Dylan’s enigma survive the experience intact.
