It's all things Bob Dylan at The Current as we look forward to Dylan's 80th birthday. Now, your introduction to Bob Dylan — whether you are a fan of the music or not — has to be the documentary, Dont Look Back, by D.A. Pennebaker, because that was my introduction.
I wasn't a fan necessarily of Dylan's music. But people convinced me years and years ago, "You will be a fan of him after you watch this doc."
The film is remarkable for so many reasons. It follows Dylan on his 1965 tour of England, and Dylan was 23 years old — he was a complete snot. And that's what you're going to love about him.
Dont (sic) Look Back is available for streaming on a number of services, including Amazon Prime Video, HBO Max, Hulu, iTunes, YouTube, Google Play and Apple TV.
