They started out strong as a duo.

Throughout their romance, they continued singing together on stage and spending time together offstage.

However, in real life, Dylan suddenly broke up with Joan Baez in 1965 after his UK tour.

Baez has said many times since then that Dylan broke her heart when he ended things.

Unfortunately, his next relationship would add insult to injury.

Joan wont be there when I want her.

This statement, if true, makes it seem like he only saw Baez and Lownds as objects.

As painful as this situation was, it led to incredible music by both artists.

Bob Dylan (Timothée Chalamet) is guided through a crowded room by his manager, Albert Grossman (Dan Fogler), while wearing sunglasses and looking down.

Unlike Baez, Dylan is guarded about the inspiration for his songs.
