I hadn't thought about the hellfire-specifically aspect. Good point.
I didn't know that about that Dylan/Baez footage! Still so much to learn. I did love I'm Not There, though I don't think I "got" all of it.
Authenticity can be, if taken too seriously, a trap -- the ability to adapt is itself a chameleonic quality, and so authenticity can mean locking those colours down until you get eaten. Neophyte that I am, even I know that Dylan's multiple-act career depends on his frequent reinventions, along with the angry jeers whenever he "goes electric."
