Bob Dylan is a folks music legend, identified for his legendary lyrics and for winding his personal mythos all through his profession, for the reason that early Nineteen Sixties.

With such a wide-spanning historical past and the songwriter all the time being the one to inform his tales, you’d maybe anticipate that he would need a number of say in what did and didn’t go into his biopic A Full Unknown.

Nonetheless, he surprisingly stayed away from meddling for probably the most half, in line with the celebs of the movie.

The movie stars Timothee Chalamet as Bob himself, Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez and Elle Fanning as Sylvie Russo — a pseudonym for a extra personal ex of Bob’s, Suze Rotolo.

Talking to Rolling Stone, Elle Fanning revealed that in a scene through which Bob and Sylvie are combating, the songwriter stepped in so as to add his personal line. She says: “It was one thing like, ‘Don’t even hassle coming again,’

“We all know the arguments have been actual, so perhaps he was remembering one thing — or regretting one thing that he mentioned to her.”

Talking about his track Ballad In Plain D, which was written about Rotolo, Bob revealed again in 1985 that he didn’t look again on the track fondly. He mentioned: “That one I look again and I say, ‘I will need to have been an actual schmuck to jot down that’.

“I look again at that exact one and say, of all of the songs I’ve written, perhaps I might have left that alone.”

A Full Unknown is launched in UK Cinemas on January 17, 2025
