In a scene that will doubtless strike a chord with women the world over, on the morning following their first night together, after receiving his unsolicited opinion that she "tries too hard" with her songwriting, and that her songs "are like an oil painting at the dentist's office", Joan Baez (Monica Barbaro) tells Bob Dylan (Timothée Chalamet), "You're kind of an asshole Bob." Though no other character in James Mangold's eagerly-anticipated biopic of one of music's most enigmatic legends voices the same line, you can take it as read that, at some point in their dealings with the Minnesota-born musician, they've definitely had the same thought.
