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.

0:47.6 | In Toronto, you can get vaccinated if you're, of course, above a certain age. |
0:51.8 | And also, if you live in certain hotspot areas, so you've got to have the right postal |
0:55.8 | code. |
0:56.8 | You're unfortunately not in a hotspot area. |
0:59.1 | If only we could just get a few neighbors to get the disease, then maybe we could have |
1:03.6 | a chance of getting vaccinated. |

1:09.5 | North York, not asking for ID. |
1:12.4 | And this friend of ours didn't quite get it in time. |
1:15.0 | They ran out, but they said, well, you can come back tomorrow. |
1:17.9 | And I kind of went with the attitude of like, well, I don't, I don't actually believe |
