00:00Buon arte rende il mondo un piatto migliore.
00:07Dicono che nessuno vuole ascoltare quello che ha scritto un ragazzino.
00:10A me piacciono le tue canzoni.
00:13Well, I think that's a good reason, I think there's many reasons.
00:16He's an extremely interesting figure and also a character,
00:19a really unique character in the history of world music.
00:24And on top of that, his songbook, the songs he wrote,
00:27are timeless and sound as good today as they did 60 years ago.
00:33And as edgy and cool and poetic and contemporary as they did 60 years ago.
00:40So yes, it's exciting to think that there's many young people here tonight
00:44who'll be hearing these songs for the first times in their lives.
00:47It's not bad, yes, it's good.
00:49In fact, we will make it, they will all be exposed.
00:52It's really exciting, I looked on the charts, you know,
00:55Bob Dylan's albums are in the top ten.
00:58Yeah.
00:59Yeah, he's 60 year old records.
01:01Yeah, pretty great.
01:03And did Dylan always remain true to himself?
01:06It's not easy, how can we do it?
01:09No one always remains true, but I think he did well.
01:13He did very well to follow his heart.
01:15Well, freedom is changing or not changing, or even thinking about changing.
01:21Freedom is freedom, which is the ability to stay where you are or move on.
01:26So I don't think freedom is measured by change.
01:31So no, I think change is the result of courage.
01:36Change is the result of going somewhere you haven't gone before,
01:41or somewhere people around you don't want to go,
01:44or also even changing who you are,
01:47which is what Dylan did when he arrived in New York at 19 years of age.
01:50Woody Guthrie said that a good song can only make good to the world and a good movie?
01:56Same. I mean, good art makes the world a better place.
02:00What is good art? Good art makes us think as well as entertains us.
02:05Too much of what we consume in music and movies, in my opinion, is empty.
02:10It's filled with spectacle and color and light and sound,
02:13but we forget it five minutes after we leave.
02:16And good art stays with us like a good meal, like a good wine, like a good book.
02:22And that to me is always the goal.
02:25We may not always succeed, but we should always be trying to do more than just make fluff.
02:33Well, I've already had many more than five minutes with Bob.
02:37I'd love to have spent time with Pete Seeger.
02:40I play banjo myself and I adore him.
02:43And I love how Edward plays him in our movie,
02:46but also he's a really great example of someone who believed in art could change the world.
02:53I think ultimately he has in many ways.
02:57In New York, the Hudson River was terribly polluted and he cleaned it using nothing but a banjo and organizing
03:04people.
03:08While we're here, we're going to be working with Bobby the Hudson River.
03:26We'll be right back.
03:26We'll be right back.
03:27We'll be right back.
03:27We'll be right back.
03:28We'll be right back.
03:29Grazie a tutti
