D.A. Pennebaker and Bob Neuwirth on 'Don't Look Back' (2015)
*** 1/2 (out of 4)
You've got to give the Criterion Collection a lot of praise. When they released Bob Dylan's DON'T LOOK BACK to Blu-ray they not only ported over all the previous bonus features but created several new ones. This one here clocks in at 31 minutes and has director D.A. Pennebaker sitting down with Bob Neuwirth as the two discuss their friendship, how they started working together and various music festivals/events that have been put on film by the director. This documentary has a terrific feel to it as it really does seem like two friends just sitting down to have a long chat. Both men tell some terrific stories about not only DON'T LOOK BACK but also MONTERY POP and just an overall vibe of the music scene at that time. If you're a fan of Dylan or Pennebaker then this here is certainly a must see as there are some great behind-the-scenes stories shared.
