thanks for the clip, can't wait to see this!

- Van Ronk was a genius who deserved MUCH more success. I remember my gifted guitar-playing - tinear 12:11:46 01/25/13 (0)
  roommate in college shaking his head as he endlessly tried to replicate Dave's intricate fret-work.
I dunno. I thoroughly dislike ALL attempts to mimic singers: is Val Kilmer really - tinear 08:54:57 01/25/13 (5)
Jim Morrison? I can't suspend the belief. The charisma level isn't there, no matter the vocal skills.
Jamie Foxx gave it a good try, but, c'mon, his copy of Ray Charles was a 15-watt bulb next to the sun.
That said, I'll see anything by the brothers.
- The main actor is a truly great singer in his own right -- doesn't mimic Dylan at all - Jazz Inmate 23:21:45 01/25/13 (4)
  The tune playing in the trailer is an ACTUAL DYLAN SONG, in case you somehow didn't figure that out. The Coen's abruptly ended the trailer before you hear the Davies character sing to create intrigue. They expect the audience to have the tiny bit of intelligence it takes to figure out they used a Dylan tune in the soundtrack.

  - I wasn't talking about that specific song, thank you. If the idea is to have someone lip synch to Dylan, you - tinear 13:16:07 01/26/13 (3)
    can have it.
    As far as your depiction of the guy being, "great," I think your definition and mine are canyons apart.
    - Lip synch to dylan??? where do you come up with this stuff? - Jazz Inmate 17:24:04 01/27/13 (2)
      The Coen's cast a Jullard-trained musician to play the lead role. You don't think this guy is great?
