The Dryden Theater at George Eastman House (900 East Ave.) will be showing Don't Look Back starting at 8 p.m. As a film and music buff, I really can't miss this. According to the Eastman House calendar, "in 1965, Subterranean Homesick Blues was climbing the UK charts and Bob Dylan was touring England. [D.A. Pennebaker]'s cinema verite classic captures Dylan's performances with stunning clarity and force. Equally fascinating are the off-stage events — interviews, negotiations, rehearsals, and wranglings — in which Dylan displays his now-iconic persona."
