RE: Dylan by Scorcese on PBS ... PART TWO IS TUESDAY!!!!

["J" <jlregister>]

Part Two is on TUESDAY, not Wednesday.

Part One was excellent...current day interviews of Dylan and many of the key
figures of 60s folk music, mixed with archival footage and sound from early
in Dylan's career, not only of Dylan, but also the rest of the folk scene.
Interspersed with scenes from the 1966 UK tour (some of this is from Don't
Look Back, some is footage not included in Don't Look Back).  I believe Part
Two starts with the infamous performance at Newport (Dylan goes electric).


Also this week on PBS:

Wednesday 9/28, a 1-hour show on the early Beatles, told through the eyes of
Pete Best.

Wednesday 9/28, Get Up, Stand Up: Pop and Protest, a 2-hour documentary
hosted by Chuck D. of Public Enemy.  I think Patti appears in this
show...there was a quick shot of her in the preview.

Thursday 9/29, The Sixties: The Years That Shaped a Generation.  Themes are
war and peace, politics, popular culture and revolutions.  Views from right
and left.   The credits for writer/director/producers include Stephen
Talbot, a very fine progressive documentary filmmaker whose work appeared
for many years on Frontline.  This could turn out to be a better than
average look at the 60s.
