A Complete Unknown - Blu-ray + Digital

I lived through these times. Bob Dylan was my “Elvis.” He and the Beatles serenaded and enriched my high school years, giving me a sense of balance and optimism in the face of assassinations, atomic bomb MAD drills culminating in the almost-apocalypse of the Cuban nuclear standoff (incredibly scary stuff needing deep melodic relief), racial conflict, and feminine outrage. To be a great singer of a whole generation, the artist must be the right person in the right place with the right stuff. The enigmatic, brilliant wordsmith and performer Bob Dylan was just such a person. His essence captured magically by Timothee Chalamet, his performance certainly merited a Best Actor Academy Award. But those things are subjective versus equally magnificence competition each year, though in my heart “A Complete Unknown” has both Best Picture and Best Actor Oscars. This picture is not just an artistic rendering of a slice of chaotic musical history but a reflection of the real angst and hope of a whole generation of young people, connecting to the rich folk song history and projecting into the deep rock of the looming future. At its root, this is a powerful emotional connection to our roots and our possibilities. Viewed on a wall screen projected in 4K with full surround sound turned up, the experience is immersive and lasting. For those too young to remember the ‘60s this is a fascinating and moving eye-opener, accurately reflecting the peril and grandeur of ever-present personal and global existential crises. To all those involved in this magical production, I have only one word: “Bravo!”

This film was such a treat when I saw it for the first time in the theatre. Chalamet Barbosa and Norton brought to life amazing performances. It took 5 years for Chalamet and Barbosa to learn to play guitar in the styles of Dylan and Baez and to me they did not disappoint. Their acting was superb as well. This movie put me right in the middle of 1961-65 and what a great ride it was. I am so glad they included the music that set the tone of this time and not ignore it in order to move the movie along.The 4K was sharp and well made. I enjoyed this movie so much. I hope people who watch this film enjoy it as much as I did.

I really enjoyed watching A Complete Unknown. I thought it was an excellent biography musical drama from start to finish. The movie is awesome. I actually cried while watching it. That's how good of a movie it was. I thought it was well done. Timothee Chalamet did an outstanding job portraying Bob Dylan and Edward Norton did an outstanding job at portraying Pete Seeger. I thought the performances were absolutely brilliant, and the movie was excellent from start to finish. It's one of the best films I've ever seen. Give it a chance. I think you will really enjoy watching it everyone did an Excellent Job portraying their characters in this movie I hope you found my review helpful and I think you will enjoy watching it as much as I did it was a really good movie give it a chance.

I really enjoyed this film. Timothee Chalamet played a great Bob Dylan. I would recommend this film to any Dylan fan or casual fan. It’s just a great story

A great film. I never was a big Dylan fan, but the movie really showed why he was such a giant in American Music. The entire cast was terrific, but Chalomet deserved the Oscar.

Excellent movie. I really enjoyed it and have watched it a couple of times already.

This is a great movie, I think. Authentic representation of the 60ish through and through. I was born in ‘54 on the West Coast but I still recall all the wonderful musical hype coming out of the from outta the East Coast.

Brilliant! Timothee nailed it, as did the other cast members. Very high production quality.
