Rich BonnifaceNARRATOR
Now we can go back to the square.
Rich BonnifaceNARRATOR
It was early October, a fiercely windy evening at the Piazza Grande in Locarno, and in the thick of a song, Dylan found that he couldn't sing.
Rich BonnifaceNARRATOR
His mouth opened and nothing came out.
Rich BonnifaceNARRATOR
He told the story years later to a magazine reporter and wrote about it again in his memoir.
Juliette BretanGUEST
going into the 20s.
Juliette BretanGUEST
And then by 1925, Locarno treaties established the Western borders, but not the Eastern.
Juliette BretanGUEST
So it's this sense that I think really in the UK, we have this sense of these bracketed periods of global war, and then it all lived happily ever after.
Juliette BretanGUEST
And it's not the picture.

Ahn Jae-wooHOST
Your selection this week is the latest from the prolific Hong Sang-soo.
Ahn Jae-wooHOST
The title of the film is Nowhere to Lay My Eyes, or in Korean, 눈 둘 때가 없네, which won both Best Director and Best Actress for Kim Min-hee at this year's Locarno Film Festival.
Ahn Jae-wooHOST
Tell us about this wonderful movie.
Ahn Jae-wooHOST
Yeah, this is the Hong's 35th film.
Mark RaymondPANELIST
But ultimately, I think the film is getting at this kind of theme around...
Mark RaymondPANELIST
the power of art to try to maybe like heal some of these, uh, relationships, which is a theme obviously that runs through a lot of films.
Mark RaymondPANELIST
And I think it always, it, um, was something that Locarno, uh, festival and the jury there responded to.
Mark RaymondPANELIST
It just isn't really my favorite of his type of films, but, uh, but I, I will give it a mild recommendation.
Gary LachmanGUEST
And one of the reasons I'm talking about Hesse there is because Hesse lived not right there, but not far.
Gary LachmanGUEST
There is the city Locarno is the sort of the transport hub to get to Oscona, but there's another city Lugano, which is around there, which is slightly bigger than Locarno and it's more kind of casino kind of place, but In the hills above Lugano is a village called Montagnola.
Gary LachmanGUEST
And Hesse lived up there from 1919 until he died in the early 60s.
Gary LachmanGUEST
And there's a Hesse Museum there that's absolutely fantastic.
SteveGUEST
I guess, you know, the context of the song, it's a fantastically, it's a beautiful song.
SteveGUEST
I've only ever heard it performed once live, which was at the Moon and the Stars show in Locarno in Switzerland in 2009.
SteveGUEST
And that was one of those life moments, you know, even watching her perform it, you know, I felt like an even deeper reaction than I've ever felt.
SteveGUEST
watching her do it.
