Has anyone else watched the Bob Dylan documentary?

I did. I thought it was good. I knew Dylan was booed when he first came out with the electric guitar in Newport in 1965 (my friend's father was there for that), but I didn't know he was heckled in concerts after that as well.

I also felt it was interesting in how Pete Seeger and others thought of him as the new Woody Guthrie, but how he didn't want to go down that path. I found it funny how he was perplexed about the media asking him what he had to say (aside from his songs), I guess it says more about the corporate media than it does about him. I think he was probably right to do what he could to get rid of his "followers", as if people should be following other people in the first place. I suppose a lot of those people's reactions came from a place of desperation, I suppose it would be easy to look at him in Newport in 1963 and see him as some type of folk savior.
