The opening of D.A. Pennebaker’s 1967 Bob Dylan doc Don’t Look Back – featuring the zeitgeist Subterranean Homesick Blues clip with lyric cue cards – has gotten a redo with contributions from dozens of artists, designers, filmmakers, and musicians including Bruce Springsteen, Patti Smith, Jim Jarmusch, and Wim Wenders.
The remake brings vintage images of Dylan together with new art, animation, and cameos from a bunch of notable creatives, including Cey Adams, Anthony Burrill, Francis Cabrel, Julian House, Azazel Jacobs, Michael Joo, The Stone Roses’ John Squire, and Naoki Urasawa. Made us homesick for a cameo by Dylan, but no go.
