A complete strangerwhich hits theaters on January 29, biopic by James Mangold dedicated to Bob Dylan, with actor Timothée Chalamet in the title role, certainly lives up to its title when it comes to examining the treatment of the American singer and poet in The World.
When Bob Dylan's name appeared for the first time in the evening daily, on November 26, 1965, it was through the very back door. In an article entitled “Black and White Folklore”, in the section The records, alongside a review of a new interpretation of the Twilight of the gods, by Richard Wagner, a columnist named Philidor touches on the Bob Dylan case.
He writes: “The musical folklore of the United States, white or black, benefits from a large audience, and it is in series that records come to us from across the Atlantic. (…) Finally, it is a folklore largely inspired by the West, its laments of wood fires, of the “wide open spaces” that we find on the menu of the album The Best of Folk Songs. There we find Pete Seeger, Bob Dylan, who are causing havoc on this side of the Atlantic, Brothers Four and Johnny Cash. Unequal talents, but the whole exudes a friendly “good-natured” atmosphere. » It is impossible to know which of the artists cited belongs to the “unequal talent”.
