When it comes to Bob Dylan, the lines between fact and fiction often blur. The iconic singer, songwriter, musician, Oscar winner and Nobel laureate for literature has long been shrouded a bit in mystery, and it always seems he's willing to help fuel his own mythology.

When it comes to the new James Mangold-directed film "A Complete Unknown" that tackles his 1961 arrival in New York up to the moment he plugged in at the 1965 Newport Folk Festival, the lines between fact and fiction are blurred. And do you know what? That's what makes this movie so much fun.

In this episode of Streamed & Screened, co-host and hardcore music and Dylan fan Terry Lipshetz discusses the film, so of the inconsistencies with reality and how none of it matters.

Bruce Miller also shares interviews with Jayden Bartels and Sam McCarthy, stars of the new Disney+ series "Goosebumps: The Vanishing," which also stars David Schwimmer.

Finally, we talk about the devastating Los Angeles wildfires and what it means for the entertainment industry that is at the start of awards season.
