As someone who was just a twinkle in my parents’ eyes when Bob Dylan made his iconic switch to electric, I can only imagine the outrage that must have swept through the folk community at the time. But watching the new trailer for “A Complete Unknown,” I find myself both fascinated and slightly envious of those who were there to witness it firsthand.
The film titled “A Complete Unknown” will reveal the incredible story of a young musician from Minnesota who transformed the world using his acoustic guitar. It will also delve into the unexpected action he took, which went against what his fans desired – namely, his decision to abandon his beloved acoustic instrument for an electric one. The latest trailer for the Bob Dylan biopic featuring Timothée Chalamet highlights not only the artist’s breathtaking ascent to stardom but also this contentious choice he made.
Wish we could revisit times when musical artists made headlines due to their selected instruments rather than personal scandals or controversies.
What made Bob Dylan’s decision to switch guitars such a significant event in music history is explored in the movie “A Complete Unknown.” This film, released by Searchlight Pictures, offers insights for those of us who weren’t around during the early days of his career. Here’s the official synopsis:
1960s New York City: Amidst a bustling music scene and cultural turmoil, an enigmatic 19-year-old from Minnesota, armed with his guitar and extraordinary talent, moves to the West Village. His arrival marks the beginning of a journey that will reshape American music. As he forges deep connections during his ascent to stardom, he becomes discontented with the folk movement and makes a daring move that resonates globally, defying conventional expectations.
In this film titled “A Complete Unknown,” directed by James Mangold, who’s known for movies like “Logan” and the upcoming “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny“, collaborated on the script with Jay Cocks. This movie isn’t just Timothée Chalamet’s show; it also features Edward Norton portraying Pete Seeger, Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez, Boyd Holbrook as Johnny Cash, and Scoot McNairy as Woody Guthrie. The star-studded cast also includes Elle Fanning, Dan Fogler, Norbert Leo Butz, Eriko Hatsune, Big Bill Morgenfield, and Will Harrison.
2024 will see the conclusion of the movie year, as the film is set to premiere in cinemas on Christmas Day. This should make a delightful festive present for long-standing fans, unless they’re still holding a grudge over Dylan’s transition to electric music.
