According to reporting by Rolling Stone, Chalamet worked with a vocal coach, guitar teacher, dialect coach, movement coach and a harmonica professional as he prepared for the film.

“He never wanted to take the easy way out,” Chalamet’s guitar teacher, Larry Saltzman, told Rolling Stone. “If I presented something to him like, ‘OK, this is the real way, but there’s a little bit of a shortcut,’ his answer to that was always ‘Don’t show me the shortcut.'”

Bob Dylan’s Seal of Approval

Dylan himself recently gave a rare public comment about the film, explaining its origins and praising Chalamet for his talent.

“There’s a movie about me opening soon called A Complete Unknown (what a title!),” he posted on social media earlier this month. “Timothee Chalamet is starring in the lead role. Timmy’s a brilliant actor so I’m sure he’s going to be completely believable as me. Or a younger me. Or some other me. The film’s taken from Elijah Wald’s Dylan Goes Electric – a book that came out in 2015. It’s a fantastic retelling of events from the early ’60s that led up to the fiasco at Newport. After you’ve seen the movie read the book.”
