Actor Monica Barbaro On Books, Art & The Joan Baez Songs She Plays On Repeat
Still from film ‘A Complete Unknown’

The highly anticipated, BAFTA-nominated Bob Dylan biopic A Complete Unknown is out now in cinemas. The film, starring Timothée Chalamet as Dylan, takes us back to 1960s New York and offers a deep-dive into the eclectic and often enigmatic story of how a young musician rose to become one of the most celebrated singer-songwriters of his generation. At the heart of the narrative is Dylan’s complex, on-again, off-again relationship with Joan Baez, the folk music legend played by Top Gun: Maverick star Monica Barbaro.

We had the pleasure of sitting down with Monica to mark the release of A Complete Unknown and find out all her cultural favourites – from the books she rates to the directors on her bucket list to work with. Plus, we get some insider intel on her role as Joan like that final filming moment: singing Dylan’s classic Blowin’ in the Wind with Timothée Chalamet. Watch our exclusive interview with Barbaro below, and find out more about her memorable on-set experiences – including what she collected from fellow actor-friends on set...
