The best music documentary of all time just got better. Bob Dylan may look like an elderly scarecrow now, but in the '60s he was a megastar. Shot on tour in London as he was phasing out his solo folk roots and starting to go electric, this offers definitive proof as to why Dylan was one of the coolest and most influential musicians ever. Whether he's performing solo before thousands, arguing with a reporter or maintaining peace in a rowdy hotel room, he's always in control. And that's only the original Don't Look Back documentary. Director D.A. Pennebaker sifted through hours of extra footage to put together another cut of the film on a second disc that offers even more insight into the reluctant voice of a generation. There's also commentaries, extra audio tracks and a companion book. It's a must have for any Dylan fan and a must watch for anyone interested in why this weird-voiced songwriter is recognized as a revolutionary.
