PRIZE-WINNING SHORT GERMAN FILM VAGUELY TO DO WITH BOB
For the details see here. Thanks to Rainer Vesely for letting me know about this. Personally I don't get it. The vocal imitation is as awful as most, the animation of the supposedly Bob person pedestrian and the face nothing at all like Dylan's. The old black guy is better, though he owes a lot to Robert Crumb. The unseen guitar player is the star. The storyline makes me ask: "And your point is?" I just don't get it.
His Dylan impersonation leaves a lot to be desired, but there is at least something to enjoy in Weird Al Yankovic's parody, especially as he poses two very important questions: "Do geese see God?" and "May a moody baby doom a yam?"

I think its a commentary on Dylan's relationship with the Blues and Black culture. If Bob ever gets to where he wants, he wont want it.
