Doppelgangers! Cate Blanchett and Bob Dylan…Separated at Birth?

Two Megastars. Two Films. One Documentary. D.A. Pennebaker’s Seminal BOB DYLAN: DON’T LOOK BACK: 65 TOUR DELUXE EDITION

February 22, 2008

  • Docurama Films congratulates Cate Blanchett on her incredible performance and nomination for a 2008 Academy Award for Best Actress! But if you think Cate Blanchett did a great job portraying Bob Dylan in I’m Not There, you should see Dylan playing Dylan in D.A. Pennebaker’s 1965 rock doc BOB DYLAN: DONT LOOK BACK, 65 TOUR DELUXE EDITION.
  • DONT LOOK BACK is the original, stunning documentary portrait that Blanchett modeled her sixties beatnik performance on – the cinéma vérité film of Bob Dylan – his poetry, his philosophy, his personality, his life onstage and off during a smash hit concert tour of England.
  • The influential yet intimate DONT LOOK BACK was originally released in 1967 and became the gold standard for music documentaries and helped to define the genre.
  • Check out the clip and photos below to experience the doppelganger effect and look forward to DON’T LOOK BACK! Its available for purchase on www.Docurama.com
