The Bob Dylan biopic directed by James Mangold who directed “Walk the Line” (2005)
which half-killed the musician biopic was released on December 25th. Its title, “A Complete Unknown,” was, of course, pulled from the Dylan song “Like a Rolling Stone,” and many of reviews of “A Complete Unknown” have, inevitably, turned their headlines into strained puns of Dylan songs and song lyrics. “‘A Complete Unknown’ leaves Dylan’s mystery blowing in the wind,” says The Washington Post, and “Don’t Think Twice,” says Rolling Stone, “Timothée Chalamet’s Bob Dylan Biopic Is Alright.” Sheesh. I think we can do a little bit better than that.
Possible Complete Unknown Headlines
It Ain’t This Movie, Babe
It’s Alright, Ma, It’s a Movie, and a Movie Only
I Dreamed I Saw Weird: the Al Yankovic Story
Overexposed, commercialized, handle Chalamet with care
I ain’t gonna work on Disney’s farm no more
Business is a business and it’s a movie most foul
Send this movie out for some pillars and Cecil B. DeMille
