Is a new Bob Dylan documentary in the works? A Milwaukee paper did a story on Dylan’s old Greenwich hangout the Kettle of Fish and quoted an employee saying “there’s a gal who’s doing a PBS documentary, following up the last documentary on Dylan, and she is going to do some interviews in here over a couple of weeks.”
So what’s the deal? A source close to Dylan says “there is no [No Direction Home] sequel in the works.” We’ve heard elsewhere, however, that some sort of documentary is definitely forthcoming. Worse case scenario here is that PBS raised lots of money with the last one and is tossing together some shitty folk revival documentary. The best case scenario is a fully authorized follow-up to No Direction Home, hopefully covering the Basement Tapes through at least the gospel years. If this is a follow-up, who do you want to see interviewed in addition to Dylan? We’re going to shoot for the moon and hope that Sara Dylan breaks her thirty-year silence.
