Would You Reach Out Your Hand To Save A Drowning Man If You Thought He Might Pull You In?
In a fictional America caught up in a civil war that is tearing the nation apart, a benefit concert is being organized. A traveling troubadour named Jack Fate (Bob Dylan) is sprung from jail by his scheming former manager (John Goodman) to headline a concert with the expectations to bring peace to a country that is entrenched by chaos, lawlessness, and pandemonium.

This movie is full of metaphors; wheter you agree / like / get them is something all together different. Like Billy Cupid says of Jack Fate's songs in the movie, everyone will interpret it differently. I liked it; while Dylan plays Jack Fate, he's still Dylan. It's entertaining for teh cast alone, it's weird, but it's Dylan so in my eyes it can't be too bad. Read into that.Something is going on here and I don't know what it is - rnhaas
Covers of Dylan songs in multiple languages, lots of seemingly profound ruminations on the natures of various institutions, a great cast. Something is up. However, I really know what. This movie seems like it was meant to be very profound, but it ain't. Part of it just seems like a very elaborate music video. I really don't know what to make of it. Weird.
