Michael and Us: Bringing It All Back Home
Summary
<p>The year is 1965. Bob Dylan, tired of being "the voice of a generation," is on the verge of going electric... but he still has a tour of England to do. In D.A. Pennebaker's iconic documentary DONT LOOK BACK (1967), Dylan spars with journalists who question his prophet status while also trudging through protest songs that no longer mean much to him. We discuss how this film captures Dylan at a turning point. PLUS: Clint Eastwood's Richard Jewell, consuming culture in the Biden era, and reflections on Biden's first 100 days.</p><p>"Joe Biden Is Not a Radical" by Luke Savage - <a href="https://www.jacobinmag.com/2021/05/joe-biden-radical-policy-liberalism-first-100-days" rel="nofollow">https://www.jacobinmag.com/2021/05/joe-biden-radical-policy-liberalism-first-100-days</a></p>
