A Complete Unknown is a dramatic retelling of Bob Dylan’s (Timothée Chalamet) rise to fame, which means some aspects of his career were omitted so as to not over-inflate the story. Notably, Bob Dylan’s first wife is absent from the story, and some of the details around the Newport Folk Festival were changed, so the audience didn’t become bogged down with too many locations. However, there is a hugely influential component of Bob Dylan’s success that is nowhere to be seen in A Complete Unknown. If folk band Peter, Paul, and Mary hadn’t covered Dylan’s “Blowin’ in the Wind”, the musician may have been swept along with the breeze and never become the musical juggernaut he is today.
