HEARTS OF FIRE, by Richard Marquand

HEARTS OF FIRE is a 1987 American musical drama film starring Bob Dylan, Fiona Flanagan (billed only as "Fiona") and Rupert Everett. The film was essentially a vehicle for Dylan based on his success as a rock musician. It received poor reviews, a limited theatrical release and was later written off by Dylan himself...

It became available as a video in 1988.

Some concert scenes were fimed at the Colston Hall, in Bristol, UK, where fans were paid to see Bob Dylan!
Here is a briefing sheet given on 20 September 1986 to people who took part in the shooting days, explaining what will happen and how. (document found on eBay by Jürgen Wasser).
