Bob Dylan's Blood On The Tracks to be adapted into movie by Suspiria director Luca Guadagnino
In a new interview, Suspiria director Luca Guadagnino revealed that a film adaptation of Bob Dylan's Blood On The Tracks album is in the works.
Guadagnino revealed to The New Yorker that the new Bob Dylan film adaptation will be a 188-page screenplay set in the seventies, and focuses on the album's core themes.
The New Yorker report that Guadagnino was approached by a Call Me by Your Name producer who had the theatrical rights to Bob Dylan's Blood On The Tracks album, and after aquiring desired screenwriter LaGravenese, a script was created.
LaGravenese explains, “When they’re repressing, we dramatize the repression, and what that does to them, and we dramatize what happens when you let your passions take over too much.”
News of the cinematic adaptation arrives a few weeks after Bob Dylan announced his More Blood, More Tracks Bootleg series due for release on 2 November. The new release presents the sessions behind the album, most of which are unheard.
