See more Бавуу Э 07/27/2024 "The Ballad of Ramblin' Jack" is an extraordinary and remarkably humorous portrait of American folk music legend Ramblin' Jack Elliott. From his unlikely roots as the son of a Jewish doctor in Brooklyn, to his ongoing wanderings as the last of the singing cowboys, Ramblin' Jack has packed so many adventures into his 68 years that he seems more myth than man. He ran away to the rodeo at the age of fifteen, traveled and sang with Woody Guthrie, and became friend and mentor to a young Bob Dylan. See more Bahad j 07/26/2024 The costumes of the actors seemed to be very real, as if they were in their roles. The dress is really beautiful. See more Munkhjargal A 07/26/2024 It turned out to be a wonderful movie. He left when he was 15, but his adventures are the highlight of the film. See more 12/05/2016 The life and career of folk pioneer Ramblin' Jack Elliott is covered by his daughter, with a specific focus on how the personality that contributed greatly to his art made him a really lousy father. A text book case of why you shouldn't count on great musicians being great people. Elliott comes off as a really self-centered jerk. I love his music, but I find it fascinating that so many people in the documentary describe him as a really authentic person when he's the son of a Jewish doctor raised in Brooklyn who looks strikingly like Dustin Hoffman in a cowboy hat to me. People see what they want to I guess. See more Read all reviews
