Set in the influential New York City music scene of the early 1960s ‘A Complete Unknown’ follows 19 year old Minnesota musician Bob Dylan’s meteoric rise as a folk singer to concert halls and the top of the charts as his songs and his mystique become a worldwide sensation that culminates in his groundbreaking electric rock and roll performance at the Newport Folk Festival in 1965.
Timothee Chalamet is quite uncanny in his impersonation of Bob Dylan in this biopic about Dylan’s early musical career in the 1960’s. He performs all the songs himself, singing and playing the guitar and harmonica with ease.
We see Dylan’s talent emerging as a performer and song writer, with the development of a unique style changing music forever.
