Dont Look Back (actually spelled that way onscreen, without the apostrophe) is a 1967 Rockumentary / Concert Film, directed by D. A. Pennebaker, about Bob Dylan's 1965 tour of the UK (his last tour without a band). It also captures the end of his romantic relationship with fellow folk singer Joan Baez, who he took on tour with him and would remain a regular collaborator of his through the 1970s.The film is historically important for capturing Dylan at a crucial point in his career. He was busy making his controversial move from folk to electric rock music, but at the time of the tour, his early folk albums had just become smash hits in the UK, so he was dealing with throngs of fans expecting him to recreate a style that he'd already moved on from, and the boredom and frustration of that situation is a major subtext of the film. It's also famous for an iconic proto-music video in which Dylan shows a series of text cards while "Subterranean Homesick Blues" from his album Bringing It All Back Home plays in the background. As a result it was inducted in the National Film Registry in 1998.Not to be confused with Don't Look Back, a 2009 French arthouse thriller. | |

Spell My Name with an S | |
| Don't Look Back / int_89a17726 | comment |
Spell My Name With An S: The original title of the film is actually "Dont Look Back'', because the director wanted to simplify the language. Many sources have corrected it as "Don't Look Back" however. Similarly Dylan's spelling on the text cards he shows during "Subterranean Homesick Blues" is very eccentric. | |

Separated by a Common Language | |
| Don't Look Back / int_a8abe9d1 | comment |
Separated by a Common Language: A memorable demonstration of this trope in action. Someone throws a glass as Dylan's party is arriving at a hotel. Dylan, for whatever reason, seems to have deemed some man named Frank as the guilty party. Frank, who is obviously intoxicated, says he's "pissed." An enraged Dylan takes this to be the American meaning of the word, and shouts "Don't tell me you're pissed!" | |

Jerkass: He comes across as a major one, though the question of whether this was Kayfabe for the sake for Pennebaker's cameras, brought on by the stresses of his sudden fame, has been debated frequently over the years. Roger Ebert (admittedly not a fan of Dylan's music) wasn't very impressed in his review of the film's 30th anniversary reissue: | |
