New York, 1961. Against the backdrop of a vibrant music scene and tumultuous cultural upheaval, an enigmatic 19-year-old from Minnesota arrives with his guitar and revolutionary talent, destined to change the course of American music. He forges intimate relationships with music icons of Greenwich Village on his meteoric rise, culminating in a groundbreaking and controversial performance that reverberates worldwide.
Timothée Chalamet stars and sings as Bob Dylan in James Mangold‘s A COMPLETE UNKNOWN, the electric true story behind the rise of one of the most iconic singer-songwriters in history. With Elle Fanning, Ed Norton, Monica Barbaro.
“It’s a remarkable performance. Star of the moment Timothée Chalamet inhabits the loose-limbed, live-wire physicality of the young Bob Dylan and makes an impressively good fist of capturing the frayed hessian of his distinctive voice.” (Observer UK)
“Even as it builds a realistic world with sweep and detail… it doesn’t try to make Bob palatable, nice or, finally, comprehensible in the usual dreary biopic fashion.” (New York Times)
“‘A Complete Unknown’ is, much to the surprise of this critic, not at all staid and perfunctory. Even a skeptic can be swept away by its heady mix of laidback assessment and genuine awe.” (Vanity Fair)
