Don't Look Back (Again - this time on DVD)

In Spring 1965 Bob Dylan toured England.  D.A. Pennebaker filmed the documentary Don't Look Back during that tour.  I remember in September 1967 the movie was released.  I went to Manhattan with my friend Eric Fradkin and saw it at the 34th Street East Theater.  In the early 1980s I saw it in a movie theater on the upper west side with Karen.  Later in the 1980s I bought the VHS version and have seen it umpteen times on my VCR.  Just this month Don't Look Back was re-released on DVD.  This version includes a bonus disk called Bob Dylan 65 Revisited.  It contains outtakes which have never been seen by the public.  We saw the first hour of that tonight.  We'll continue tomorrow by seeing some concert footage from the Royal Albert Hall and added commentary by Pennebaker.
