	Movies - No Direction Home

No Direction Home is a documentary film by Martin Scorsese that traces the life of Bob Dylan, and how he managed to make such a big impact in the popular music and culture of the 20th century. The film was first presented on television in both the United States (as part of the PBS American Masters series) and the United Kingdom (as part of the BBC Two Arena series) on September 26–27 2005. A DVD version of the film and accompanying soundtrack album (The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home: The Soundtrack) were released that same month.

The title of the film is borrowed from the title of Robert Shelton's 1986 classic biography of Dylan, which in turn was taken from the lyric of the Dylan song, "Like a Rolling Stone", on the Highway 61 Revisited album.

The film also showcases important influences on Dylan, including:

John Jacob Niles
Odetta
Woody Guthrie
Joan Baez
Allen Ginsberg
Pete Seeger
Dave Van Ronk
Suze Rotolo
