Set amidst the dynamic Greenwich Village music scene of 1961, a enigmatic 19-year-old from Minnesota arrives in New York with his guitar and a revolutionary talent. As he forges deep personal connections during his meteoric rise, he begins to chafe against the confines of the folk movement. Unwilling to be boxed in, he makes a bold, polarising decision that forever reshapes the trajectory of American music. Oscar-nominee Timothée Chalamet perfectly embodies the magnetic spirit of Bob Dylan in James Mangold’s electrifying musical biopic. Nominated for 6 BAFTA Awards, including Best Film and Best Leading Actor (Timothée Chalamet).

Reviews

‘James Mangold’s biopic follows the rise of the era-defining star with Chalamet brilliantly embodying his shapeshifting allure’
★★★★★
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

‘This is an extraordinary performance, far deeper than an impersonation, that charts the progress of the singer-songwriter, the music scene he entered and altered, and events in the wider world during times that were urgently a’changin’.’
★★★★
Nick Curtis, London Evening Standard
