Monica Barbaro & Timothee Chalamet playing guitars in A Complete Unknown
A Complete Unknown tells the story of a young Bob Dylan and his rise to fame in the early to mid-1960s. His journey to find himself, and his art, culminates in a difficult decision during the 1965 Newport Folk Festival. The film also showcases the impact that Dylan's music had at the time, and how his influence is still relevant today.
✕ Remove Ads A Complete Unknown Is Made More For Newcomers To Bob Dylan Than Fans "The people that love Bob Dylan will go see it anyway, and the people that are curious will get a big kick out of it." ScreenRant: I did not know much about Bob Dylan going into this movie, but was captivated by it. Were you fans of Bob Dylan before signing onto A Complete Unknown?Donald Syvester: I would go with that too.
The whole entire crew just did an amazing job. Everybody loved what they were creating. It was not an easy film by any means. But when you get on something, and you know that it's great, your heart is there. You give 110%, and I think that's what everyone did on this film. Donald Sylvester: Also, Jim's extremely meticulous. So if there's a moment in the film which you haven't addressed, even for a half a second, he will address it for you. He'll tell you there's something missing in this dead space. And you could defend yourself by saying, Well, isn't there somebody inhaling at this moment?
It's just kind of amazing that the movie works. But it's also a testament to just being really there. You're witnessing something. You're not just watching a recreation, you're witnessing something go down. Donald Sylvester: We had to make sure we got out of the way of that in terms of adding sounds in.
We worked with the actors for their on mic presence, and just trying to keep a continuity as they were singing live, and they would maintain what a professional singer would be, because Bob was a professional singer at that point, and plus we were amplifying everything out to the audience. So anything that had an audience, we had amplified speakers going out to those, and then I'd be capturing that amplified sound, plus all of the sound coming from the audience.
