This was the only date requested for a permit through the Montgomery Township Committee for part of the road to be blocked.

“A Complete Unknown” is a film that follows Bob Dylan’s rise as a musician to his performance at the Newport Folk Festival and his switch from acoustic to electric guitar.

The biopic has an all-star cast featuring Academy Award nominee Timothee Chalamet, who is portraying Dylan, Emmy nominee Elle Fanning as Sylvie Russo, Academy Award nominee Edward Norton as Pete Seeger, and actress Monica Barbaro as Joan Baez.

The movie is being directed by James Mangold, who wrote the biopic with Jay Cocks. Production and filming for the movie has taken place across several locations in New Jersey.
