Toller Trailer zum Beatnik-Film der Coen Brothers „Inside Llewyn Davis“ mit Carey Mulligan, Adam Driver, Justin Timberlake und John Goodman. Der Film basiert auf dem Buch „The Mayor of MacDougal Street“, der Biographie von Dave Van Ronk, einem der wichtigsten Folk-Musiker der 60s. Pop, Politik und die Coen Brothers, wenn dit mal nix wird, dann weiß ich auch nich’.
Hier die Synopsis des Buchs:
Dave Van Ronk (1936-2002) was one of the founding figures of the 1960s folk revival, but he was far more than that. A pioneer of modern acoustic blues, a fine songwriter and arranger, a powerful singer, and one of the most influential guitarists of the ’60s, he was also a marvelous storyteller, a peerless musical historian, and one of the most quotable figures on the Village scene. The Mayor of MacDougal Street is a first-hand account by a major player in the social and musical history of the ’50s and ’60s. It features encounters with young stars-to-be like Bob Dylan, Tom Paxton, Phil Ochs, and Joni Mitchell, as well as older luminaries like Reverend Gary Davis, Mississippi John Hurt, and Odetta. Colorful, hilarious, and engaging, The Mayor of MacDougal Street is a feast for anyone interested in the music, politics, and spirit of a revolutionary period in American culture.
