In May 1967, during a discussion about his yet-to-be-released film Eat the Document, Bob Dylan cryptically remarked, 'The film is finished. It's different.' It would not be the last time he could make this claim. Beyond his musical prowess, Dylan's career encompasses a lesser-explored facet - that of a filmmaker creating works that defy convention. This book delves into these cinematic forays, unravelling the intriguing interplay of Dylan's presence both behind and in front of the camera.

Dylan's cinematic experiments, ranging from the ground-breaking Dont Look Back (1967) to the enigmatic Masked and Anonymous (2003), stand as unique and thought-provoking additions to his artistic legacy. Unveiling an experimental and inquisitive sensibility, these films draw inspiration not only from cinematic predecessors but also from Dylan's songcraft. Often residing in the periphery of Dylan studies, a closer examination of his cinematic oeuvre reveals an underrated auteur who fearlessly transcends the boundaries of the page, stage, and screen.
