Join us for a one-hour program of rare and unreleased films from the Bob Dylan archive, capturing Bob on stage and in the studio over many decades. Selections include Dylan’s first film soundtrack for 1961’s “Autopsy on Operation Abolition”; a devastating solo rendition of “Ballad of Hollis Brown” from 1963; a rollicking 1976 take on “I Pity the Poor Immigrant” with Joan Baez; a gospel-infused “Blowin’ in the Wind;” an apocalyptically rocking “When the Night Comes Falling from the Sky” with Dylan backed by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers; loving tributes to Johnny Cash and Tony Bennett; a glimpse into the Archive’s film restoration project with never-before-seen footage of “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue” from 1966, and more.
After the screening, stick around for a conversation with Bob Dylan Center director Steven Jenkins and a performance by Wesley Stace (aka John Wesley Harding).
