Synopsis
At the folk festival in Newport in 1965, young Bob Dylan shakes his performance on the folk music wall, igniting and portraying rock as the voice of a generation, defining one of the most transformative moments in music of the 20th century. The walls filmed for the 1965 Newport Folk Festival in Rhode Island, where Bob Dylan made his first public appearance with an electric guitar, were filmed in the seaside resort town of Cape May, New Jersey. Minimal remediation was required, given the resort’s bid for National Historic Landmark status due to its concentration of Victorian architecture, as well as other architectural motifs from the 19th and 20th centuries.
