Scenario

At the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, a young Bob Dylan rocks his folk music scene by playing an electric guitar and establishing rock as the voice of a generation—defining one of the most seminal moments in 20th-century music. Scenes filmed to represent the 1965 Newport Folk Festival in Rhode Island, where Bob Dylan first performed publicly with an electric guitar, were filmed at the seaside resort of Cape May, New Jersey. Minimal repairs were needed, given the resort’s commitment to its designation as a National Historic Landmark due to its concentration of Victorian architecture, as well as other 19th- and 20th-century architectural motifs.
