Thanks to the miracle of Internet uploading, Bob Dylan's 1975 rock epic "Renaldo and Clara" is now available online. Dylan has refused to screen — or home release — the film since its original, infamous debut. At nearly four hours in length, "Renaldo'" pairs electrifying live performances from The Rolling Thunder Revue with surreal "scenes", "scripted" by bad-boy playwright, Sam Shepard.

Presented by The Sleepless Film Festival, the Dylan film is paired with its clearest cinematic antecedent — Marcel Carne's 1945 costume drama, "Les Enfants du Paradis." Carne's poetic masterpiece was filmed in occupied France during WWII, using Nazis as extras and fugitive Jews as set designers and composers. The film itself is as incredible as its origins and it is said to screen in Paris every single day since it first premiered.
