When it comes to Dylan’s “favorite” movie, the answer isn’t an obscure French art-house title or a rarely seen cult classic. Instead, his top pick comes from one of the most celebrated directors in American cinema, Martin Scorsese.
The two seemingly smoothed things over, with Scorsese going on to direct No Direction Home: Bob Dylan, the first of two documentaries he would make about the iconic songwriter.
However, upon hitting theaters, the film drew controversy. Even though The Last Temptation of Christ begins with the disclaimer, “This film is not based on the Gospels, but upon the fictional exploration of the eternal spiritual conflict,” many Christians considered it blasphemous for depicting Jesus as a mortal man struggling with his divine duties.
Nonetheless, during his 2016 performance at the Beacon Theatre in New York City, Dylan shared his appreciation for the film, seemingly with Scorsese in the audience.
Dylan even joked about wanting a follow-up. “I think he’s gonna make one for the first temptation one of these days,” he quipped, “Right, Marty? You just got to, for me.”
Although a sequel to The Last Temptation of Christ isn’t on the horizon, Scorsese revisited Dylan’s story with the 2019 documentary Rolling Thunder Revue: A Bob Dylan Story by Martin Scorsese.
