Bob Dylan's 'Masked And Anonymous' To Be Released On Blu-Ray

Bob Dylan's 2003 film Masked And Anonymous is set to receive a Blu-Ray release this year.

The film follows the events of a charity concert held to benefit "a nation wracked with civil war and social unrest" that is being planned by a deceptive concert promoter, Uncle Sweetheart (John Goodman), who plans to take a large sum of money from the event for himself. He springs the legendary musician, Jack Fate (Dylan) from prison to aid him with the conspiracy.

Directed by Larry Charles and co-written by Dylan, the film also features a performance by Dylan and his then-touring band, including guitarists, Charlie Sexton, and Larry Campbell.

The Blu-Ray disc will include several bonus features, including an interview with and commentary by Charles, deleted scenes, a making-of featurette, and theatrical trailers, to name a few.

The disc will be released on March 10, 2020, and is available for pre-order now through ShoutFactory.com.

Former Eagles Guitarist Don Felder Engaged To Diane McInerney

Former Eagles guitarist Don Felder is engaged to longtime girlfriend Diane McInerney, a weekend anchor for "Inside Edition."

Felder and McInerney have both been married before and started dating in 2018.

"Don is so in love with Diane. She fills his heart every day in every way with love and joy," an insider close to the couple shared with People.

Felder proposed during a sunset stroll in Malibu Beach, California, close to the exact spot at which he co-composed the music to the Eagles' world-renowned hit, "Hotel California."

In addition to the custom-made, five-carat diamond ring, Felder also surprised McInerney with an "engagement-moon" at the Chable Maroma resort in Mexico.

Meanwhile, Felder has been on a cross-country tour since the release of his third studio album, American Rock 'n' Roll in April of 2019, and is next set to perform at The Sharon Performing Arts Centre in The Villages, Florida.

The album features the song, "Falling in Love Again" that Felder wrote for McInerney.

Roger Waters Calls U.S. A 'Fool's Hell,' Donald Trump A 'Tyrant'

Speaking at a Q&A session after a New York screening of his concert film Us + Them, Roger Waters said the United States is a "fool's hell" and described President Donald Trump as a "tyrant."

When the moderator said he was moved to see children all over the world getting the message that they're not alone, Waters responded, "Funnily enough, they are [connecting to that message], but unfortunately not f**king here."

"Because if they were, you wouldn't have Donald Trump as a president, you wouldn't be having all this nonsense with the Democratic primaries, with them trying to destroy the only candidate who can possibly win against Donald Trump, [Bernie] Sanders," he added.

"We're living here in a fool's hell," according to the Pink Floyd founder. "The United States of America is not a fool's paradise; it's a fool's hell."

Referring to Trump, Waters said, "And this is a man who has failed at f**king everything in his life except becoming the biggest . tyrant and mass murderer and mass destroyer of everything that any of us might love or cherish in the whole [world], only because he has the power."
