Bob Dylan's name is in the news again, with the early-awaited biopic A Complete Unknown scheduled to hit theatres on Christmas Day. It's the kind of outing Dylan seems to prefer, with the lack of direct involvement allowing him to remain out of the spotlight and look on, presumably bemused, as others theorise about him endlessly.
It's as if he has no truck with the public side of being a public figure. In 2016, he became the first musician to win the Nobel Prize for Literature but didn't acknowledge the honour for days, and then didn't travel to the ceremony. Instead, his acceptance speech was delivered by the US ambassador to Sweden.
