Listen "EPISODE 9: A COMPLETE UNKNOWN"
Episode Synopsis
Join us this week as we plug in our amps, squint thoughtfully from the shadows, and dive into A Complete Unknown (2024), the latest stylish spin on the musical biopic — this time focused on a young Bob Dylan, portrayed with enigmatic coolness by Timothée Chalamet.We talk all things beatnik New York, 1960s folk scenes, and James Mangold's shadowy, immersive direction. From our surprise appreciation of Mangold's back catalogue, to breaking down whether this film really understands its subject, we get into it all — including some respectful gripes, gentle ribbing of biopic tropes, and, of course, the harmonica.Is it a traditional film about non-traditionalism? Does it evolve like Dylan did, or just dress the part? We dig into the performance, the aesthetics, and the surprising amount of full-length music.Whether you're a Dylan diehard or just in it for the vibes, this episode hits like a moody chord in a smoky café. 🎸🎤
