We discuss the film's moody representation of the Greenwich Village folk scene and the flattened renderings of its women, the protagonist's "bleak circle of failure," and the hero's journey of the cat Ulysses—and consider where it ranks on our "golden dulcimer" scale of folk music films.
NEW EPISODE! Detroit music writer & film buff @motherslug.bsky.social joins us on our podcast time machine to revisit the 2013 Coen Brothers' anti-biopic Inside Llewyn Davis.

More on this in our Season 2 Karen Dalton episode (forthcoming)...
A couple nights ago, I was watching the Karen Dalton doc by Swiss artist Emmanuelle Antille, and in one scene, Peter Walker is going through KD's papers & song notes. The camera stopped on one page in particular and I was like wait a second...those are Michael Hurley songs! (Eyes Eyes & O My Stars)
