A groundbreaking interactive music video for music icon Bob Dylan's 1965 single 'Like a Rolling Stone' has been released. The video, built as a multi-media experience, allows fans to connect with the song like never before.
Created in partnership with Interlude and produced by Pulse Films and Walter Pictures, the video allows viewers to play an active role in the story of the music video. The experience begins as soon as the user presses play where they are instantly given the ability to surf 16 difference 'TV channels' within the video in real-time–no one version of the video is the same.
The interchangeable 'channels' are made up of iconic American TV formats and recognizable talent including 'Pawn Stars' from the History Channel, Derrick Ashong of Fusion TV, comedian Marc Maron, 'The Price is Right' with Drew Carey, Jonathan and Drew Scott of 'Property Brothers', 'Girl Code' on MTV, actor Simon Rex, eccentric Detroit rapper Danny Brown, and 'EXTRA' with Mario Lopez.
The video corresponds with the Columbia/Legacy Recordings release of Dylan's The Complete Album Collection Volume 1. This CD boxed set contains 35 studio titles (including the first-ever North American release of 1973's "Dylan" album on CD), 6 live albums, 2-CD "Side Tracks," and a hardcover book featuring new album-by-album liner notes by Clinton Heylin with a new introduction by Bill Flanagan. "Side Tracks" brings together for the first time two discs worth of previously released non-album singles, tracks from "Biography" and other compilations, songs from films and more.

Martin Scorsese On “The Saints,” Faith In Filmmaking and His Next Movie
When Martin Scorsese was a child growing up in New York's Little Italy, he would gaze up at the figures he saw around St. Patrick's Old Cathedral. "Who are these people? What is a saint?" Scorsese recalls. "The minute I walk out the door of the cathedral and I don't see any saints. I saw people trying to behave well within a world that was very primal and oppressed by organized crime. As a child, you wonder about the saints: Are they human?" For decades, Scorsese has pondered a project dedicated to the saints. Now, he's finally realized it in "Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints," an eight-part docudrama series debuting Sunday on Fox Nation, the streaming service from Fox News Media. The one-hour episodes, written by Kent Jones and directed by Elizabeth Chomko, each chronicle a saint: Joan of Arc, Francis of Assisi, John the Baptist, Thomas Becket, Mary Magdalene, Moses the Black, Sebastian and Maximillian Kolbe. Joan of Arc kicks off the series on Sunday, with three weekly installments to follow; the last four will stream closer to Easter next year. In naturalistic reenactments followed by brief Scorsese-led discussions with experts, "The Saints" emphasizes that, yes, the saints were very human. They were flawed, imperfect people, which, to Scorsese, only heightens their great sacrifices and gestures of compassion. The Polish priest Kolbe, for example, helped spread antisemitism before, during WWII, sheltering Jews and, ultimately, volunteering to die in the place of a man who had been condemned at Auschwitz. Scorsese, who turns 82 on Sunday, recently met for an interview not long after returning from a trip to his grandfather's hometown in Sicily. He was made an honorary citizen and the experience was still lingering in his mind. Remarks have... Read More
