Dylan at the Movies: Girl from the North Country

In honor of his 79th birthday this month (May 24), we are looking at some of the songs by Bob Dylan that have made their way to the cinema.

Silver Linings Playbook tells the story of Pat and Tiffany, two dysfunctional people who find each while suffering through their own mental illness. The movie was nominated for Best Picture, and Jennifer Lawrence took home the Oscar for Best Actress. Many of the scenes revolve around Tiffany and Pat rehearsing for a dance competition, in which a variety of music is played, but the most noticeable is Bob Dylan’s “Girl from the North Country” (from "The 10 Best Uses if Bob Dylan Songs in Movies")
