"A running, jumping, and standing still portrait of the American rock star as a young oracle...DONT LOOK BACK is blessed with the spontaneous and untapped comic talent of Dylan himself." - The New York Times "One of the great music documentaries (and meditations on celebrity) ever committed to film. Often imitated but never equalled....There's Dylan the put-on artist, Dylan the baby-faced, questing beatnik, Dylan the ugly American, Dylan the accidental cult figurehead, Dylan the aloof genius-poet, Dylan the juvenile goofball...Dylan the bitterly-detached pop demigod and Dylan the stoner. Whatever his chemical condition, he's powerfully charismatic...Like a spindly-legged, post-adolescent Socrates." - Matt Zoller Seitz, New York Press "There are scenes between Dylan, Baez, and people in Dylan's working group, that catch some moving essence of being young now! Imparts flavor of free-wheeling friendship. Pennebaker...allows things to occur before the camera as richly as they can in life." - The New Yorker |
