A Complete Unknown (Featuring Corey Levitan)
On the 425th episode of Piecing It Together, journalist Corey Levitan joins me to talk about A Complete Unknown. This Bob Dylan biopic from James Mangold starring Timothee Chalamet does its best to make a story out of a mysterious music icon. Puzzle pieces include Bohemian Rhapsody, Amadeus, Birdman and inside Llewyn Davis.
As always, SPOILER ALERT for A Complete Unknown and the movies we discuss!
Written by James Mangold and Jay Cocks
Directed by James Mangold
Starring Timothee Chalamet, Edward Norton, Elle Fanning, Monica Barbaro, Scoot McNairy, Boyd Holbrook
