Perfect Imperfection - BOB DYLAN

Perfect Imperfection: BOB DYLAN / Episode 3: “The Non-Ticking Clock”

In just fourteen months in the middle of the 1960’s the singer/songwriter Bob Dylan released three albums which form perhaps the greatest rock trilogy of all time. With their mixture of howling guitars, Rimbaud and Blake influenced lyrics, social comment and laconic style « Bringin' It All Back Home » (1965), « Highway 61 Revisited » (1965) and « Blonde on Blonde » (1966) totally changed the face of popular music forever and made their author into a sort of messianic figure.....a role he was to flee from for many years to come ! The Messiah is, after all, perfect and Dylan saw himself as no messiah !
"Perfect Imperfection" gives an insight into the talent of some of the greatest icons of 20th century popular culture, amongst them Bob Dylan, Muhammad Ali & Andy Warhol.
Each film reveals how their genius lies not in the perfection of their work but rather in it’s technical imperfections which set it apart and grant it legendary status.
