Edsel Ford II, 29, an heir to the automobile fortune, on his new job as assistant managing director of Ford Australia: "There is no silver spoon in Ford. I think that's lucky. They treat me like any other...
Nothing weighty emerges from these characters' random encounters. What the film does produce is an unflattering portrait of Bob Dylan's ego. Almost all the characters - including the performers he elbows off-screen in the musical numbers - treat the hero with dumb-struck reverence. Grateful Indians and blacks gleefully accept his political support. Worse still, Dylan fills Renaldo and Clara with self-deifying Christ images. At least we are spared a crucifixion scene...
...Everybody is so fed up with the old way. We are constantly being dictated to by musical old farts out of university who've got rich parents.

It attempts to treat Dada and surrealism on their own terms (those of dandyism, revolt, love, dream and myth) rather than judge them by official "painterly" standards. As a result the show goes further into the labyrinth than any retrospective for years on writers like Andre Breton, Paul Eluard, Louis Aragon and Antonin Artaud...
