A Complete Unknown (movie, 2024)

A Complete Unknown

Watched April 1, 2025.

A movie about a folk singer can only be so exciting. It is hard to imagine why any women found such a brooding whiner to be attractive, especially as portrayed by an actor (Chalamet) who looks like a 12-year old, but sex and lovers' spats are the only excitement there could possibly be in Dylan's life. The reenactment of Newport was interesting, but even then, Dylan was a brooding whiner. The best scene is where Al Kooper hits the organ on "Like a Rolling Stone". Taylor Swift should watch this to see how a melody can have more than two pitches.
