02:03Hard question.
02:04The first Dylan song I ever heard.
02:05I don't know.
02:06I think there's songs in Bob Dylan's discography like The Times They're a-Changin' or Blowin'
02:07in the Wind that are sort of in the texture and DNA of growing up in America.

04:39What was the one wardrobe piece in the film that completely changed how you saw your character?
04:45The early stuff in the film that Arianne designed, aging Bob's clothes, the stuff later in the
04:51film at some point is new clothes that Bob is wearing, so I didn't feel like they were
04:55in his closet as much.
04:56But I found myself constantly begging Arianne, our costume designer, please age these clothes
05:00because I feel like when Bob's off the bus fresh from Minnesota and emulating Woody Guthrie
05:06or Jack Kerouac or Moriarty, he wants to live, smell, feel, be like those figures.
05:13At some point that switched, but in the early 60s that's how he wanted to be.
05:19Is this Dylan or the artist formerly known as Lil Timmy Tim?
05:23They say that night time is the right time to be the one you love, to be with the one
05:27you love.
05:28Dylan.
05:29Yeah.
05:30Yes.
05:31It's time to do my dance, pull up your pants.
05:35That's actually great, y'all.
05:37Okay, is it Lil Timmy Tim is being put in the same category as Bob Dylan?
05:43What's wrong with that?
05:46That is the iconic, famous lyrics of one of my favorite artists of all time.
05:55If he was on Spotify, probably is, would be my number one Spotify wrapped, number one.
06:01Number one, Lil Timmy Tim.
06:03Thank you, El.
06:04Thank you, El.
06:05You kiss me on the cheek.
06:06This is great.
06:08You kiss me on the cheek and I turn it to the lip.
06:10Singular.
06:11And I turn it to the lip, Lil Timmy Tim.
06:15We grew up together from the cradle to the grave.
06:18Bob Dylan.
06:20Okay, good.
06:22It could, I mean, it could be Lil Timmy Tim.
06:24You could give a Lil Timmy Tim beat to that.
06:27That was the-
06:28Cradle to the grave.
06:29That was the clear, that was the most confusing.
06:31That could have been either.
06:32Yeah, that could have been either.
06:33Lightning fire round.
06:38Acoustic or electric?
06:39Electric.
06:40Okay.
06:41I think I say acoustic.
06:42Okay.
06:43I don't play either, but that's what I'm going with.
06:45Those are correct answers.
06:46Leather jacket or denim?
06:48Leather.
06:49Nice.
06:50Live performance or studio recording?
06:53Live.
06:54Live.
06:55Live.
06:56All day.
06:57Sunrise or sunset?
06:58Ooh.
06:59Mine's sunrise.
07:00I'm going to go sunset.
07:02I like a stay up all night watching the sunrise.
07:07Shout out my little women heiress Instagram story where I put the song sunrise, sunset
07:11up.
07:12So you like both?
07:13Yep.
07:15Vinyl or streaming?
07:17You know, come on, streaming.
07:19I know.
07:20I think we have to say streaming, right?
07:21I did figure out this Victrola Sonos thing.
07:24It's a record player that connects the Sonos and you can play in your whole house.
07:27It sounds incredible.
07:28So maybe I am one of these record player people.
07:30Greenwich or Lower East Side?
07:32Lower East Side.
07:33No doubt.
07:34Lower East Side.
07:35That's the, that's the, you know, dime square.
07:38That's where the cool kids are.
07:39Yeah, it's true.
07:40You know, ripping a Miller Lite for $8.
07:43I'm not enough of a New Yorker, but I feel like I know Greenwich better.
07:47Yeah.
07:48Oh no, this is a hard hitting question.
07:50And I'm the one asking, Sylvia or Joan?
07:53Neither.
07:54The art, the music.
07:55The art.
07:56Oh, please.
07:57I've channeled an energy in this interview.
07:59I've never channeled in my life.
08:00Yeah, I don't know.
08:01I don't know who you are.
08:02You're going like this.
08:03Squonk.
08:04What is that?
08:05Because we're on hour 11.
08:07Okay.
08:08Dylan or Guthrie?
08:09I'll go Dylan.
08:10Dylan.
08:11Bob Dylan and Woody Guthrie share a museum in Oklahoma.
08:17Just edit that in there if you want.
08:21Okay.
08:22Walk the line or Girl Interrupted?
08:24That's actually tough.
08:25This is tough.
08:26I, um, I had something of an awakening watching Girl Interrupted.
08:31I wonder what that was.
08:33I think I have to say Girl Interrupted.
08:35Yeah.
08:36Acting or singing?
08:38Being.
08:39Being.
08:40Acting or singing while acting?
08:43Seeing how long you can hold your breath swimming.
08:45Contest.
08:46Okay.
08:47Okay.
08:48For me, acting or singing?
08:51Ah.
08:52I have to go acting.
08:54Yes.
08:55Fuck.
08:56Fuck yes.
08:57Fuck yes.
09:02This question is literally yes or no.
09:06Keep it nice and simple.
09:09Conde Nast.
09:10Yes.
09:11Or no.
09:12Or no.
09:13Yes.
09:14Like the Jim Carrey movie.
09:15Yes.
09:16Yes.
09:17Always yes.
09:18Yes.
09:19That's really it?
09:20But you gotta be able to say no.
09:21Of course.
09:22You know what I mean?
09:23Of course.
09:24Can't have yes without no.
09:25No means no.
09:26Let's go.
09:27How do we end an interview like this?
09:28I hope we didn't waste anyone's time.
09:29This is a movie we're actually sincerely proud of and if we talked about how sincerely proud
09:35of it we were all day, it would come off as self-referential or something so we're
09:39trying to have a little fun.
09:40This is about a legendary figure and figures in the American cultural scene that are sort
09:47of the beginning root of a lot of great artists today.
09:50If you take the time to see it, you'll be better off for it.
09:53Hopefully this is a humble gateway to this incredible era of music.
09:59You said it all.
10:00I was perfect.
