Movie Reviews of Bob Dylan - World Tours 1966-1974: Through The Camera Of Barry Feinstein
Movie Review: POINTLESS!!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
I cant believe some reviewers actually consider this documentary to be worth while viewing. Anyhow this disgusts me, so I am compelled to contribute my own opinion. Firstly the film maker has an unhealthy willingness to look like Bob, it's a bit creepy, I mean anyone can look like Bob if they try hard enough. This guy simply looks like someone trying to look like Bob. Anyway this immediately put me on the back foot. The documentary its self is simply a slide show of photos, a little like when grandpa returns from an overseas holiday, boring. Most of the photos are nothing new, seen them before, the narrating while we view the photos is bland. Then the documentary goes off in to tangents, a terribly tacky reenactment of the motorcycle accident, I felt embarrassed for the guy at this point, it was just shocking film making. Then I got to the point were he randomly decides to chat with a homeless guy introducing himself as Bob Dylan with a completely straight face. This is when I could no longer continue watching, took the DVD out consided binning it, don't now why but a resisted. The photos are a wonderful but who care when they are lost within this shocking film, just release a book??!!!SUMMARY- THIS DOCUMENTARY IS A POINTLESS WASTE OF TIME. POINTLESS!!!!
Summary of Bob Dylan - World Tours 1966-1974: Through The Camera Of Barry Feinstein
Barry Feinstein was the exclusive tour photographer on Bob Dylan and The Band's legendary 1966 and 1974 World Tours. In this documentary feature film, Feinstein and Director Joel Gilbert chronicle these epic Bob Dylan tours, featuring over 150 selectionsA treasure trove of heretofore unseen photographs of Bob Dylan will likely be the main attraction of Bob Dylan World Tours 1966-1974, a labor of love directed and produced by Joel Gilbert. Gilbert, leader of a group (called Highway 61 Revisited) that he bills as "the world's only lookalike, soundalike Bob Dylan tribute band," is obviously a Dylan fanatic (and he does bear a passing resemblance to a younger version of the singer). In the course of this two-hour documentary, he travels to Woodstock, New York, where he and Barry Feinstein, the official photographer on Dylan's trips to England in '66 (when he unveiled his new electric sound, to the dismay of many folk purists) and his '74 "comeback" tour with the Band, examining dozens of photos, many of them quite revealing. Elsewhere, Gilbert interviews journalist Al Aronowitz (who introduced Dylan to the Beatles), filmmaker D.A. Pennebaker (who shot the Don't Look Back documentary), and "Dylanologist" A. J. Weberman (a genuine kook who gained notoriety mainly by rummaging through Dylan's garbage). These encounters are only of passing interest, due both to the fact the subjects are recalling events that took place decades ago and to Gilbert's amateurish interviewing skills; asking Feinstein whether he gave Dylan a birthday present, or wondering if Weberman considers himself "an obsessive fan" (gee, do you think?) may not be the best way to elicit fascinating revelations. While Bob Dylan World Tours 1966-1974, which also includes an exceedingly lame "re-creation" of Dylan's late-'60s motorcycle accident and a visit to "Big Pink" (where Dylan and the Band recorded), was made without Dylan's participation and contains none of his music, it's obviously a sincere effort. Whether it will find favor with anyone other than Dylan completists is another matter entirely. --Sam Graham
