(2005) Epic look back at Dylan’s rise from folk to rock star in the 60’s, with wide-ranging interviews orchestrated by Dylan’s manager Jeff Rosen, and sometimes very obscure archival footage, all eventually shaped by Scorsese (who never met or discussed the film with Dylan). DCPApprox. 208 min.

Reviews

“Scorsese's No Direction Home: Bob Dylan, creates a portrait that is deep, sympathetic, perceptive and yet finally leaves Dylan shrouded in mystery, which is where he properly lives.”
– Roger Ebert

“An honest documentary that rejects myths about rock music's greatest songwriter and attempts to capture the truth about Bob Dylan. Scorsese has created a document that will satiate Dylan fans over repeated viewings and should bring naysayers into the Dylan fold.”
– Phil Gallo, Variety
